Waistbeads and Western Society: A sisterhood connected by waistbeads

Her new book, "Waistbeads and Western Society: A Sisterhood..." is the first book in the world with "waistbeads" in the title and the first to address waistbeads in the western cultural context. In tying waistbeads around her midsection she created a new awareness of herself. To her surprise, their was little information on the waistbead lifestyle, a simple method to begin creating a positive relationship with yourself. In response, she made it her business, literally, to educate other women on the benefits of waistbeads and the sisterhood that accompanies it. In this book, Donna shares her story to empower women of color to embark on a path of self-attunement and discovery by reconnecting with the traditional cultural African practice of wearing waistbeads.
