En sus memorias, la Dra. Washington revela cómo una niña de campo, del área rural de Meherrin, Virginia, logró ser exitosa en su vida con la ayuda de su optimismo, determinación, y fe en Dios para convertirse en una estudiante de honor, una maestra, una madre de dos hijas exitosas, y madre de crianza temporal para niños abusados por más de 22 años. Ella escribe sobre la familia, las relaciones, y las complejidades de crecer en las épocas de la segregación racial y de su abolición, tiempo en el que la huelga de la escuela preparatoria R.R. Moton High School, en Farmville, Virginia en 1951, dio lugar al caso histórico Brown v. Board of Education.Su fe inquebrantable y expectativas altas para sí misma sobresalen, en particular cuando su primaria de dos cuartos en Prince Edward County, VA cierra en 1959 en respuesta a la resistencia masiva al caso histórico que puso fin a la segregación racial en las escuelas, Brown v. Board of Education. Leerá cómo una serie de retrasos personales trajeron también obstáculos, pero sin embargo, ella los derrotó para graduarse de la preparatoria y de la universidad; y eventualmente hizo historia al converstirse en la primera mujer vice-presidente de Coppin State University.Ella comparte la historia de cómo fundó Aunt Hattie’s Place (AHP), La Casa de la Tía Hattie, una casa de crianza temporal para niños abusados y con necesidades especiales.Ella también comparte sacrificios personales y secretos de familia con mucha sabiduría y un llamado a la acción. Completa con fotografías personales de su vida, su historia fascinante inspirará a todas las generaciones futuras.NOTA:  Dra. Washington es la autora de dos libros: Determinada a triunfar: Unas memorias inspiradoras de lecciones aprendidas a través de la fe, la familia y el favor, y Aunt Hattie’s Cookbook: Southern Comfort Food Favorites. Para más información, visite su sitio de internet www.drhnwashington.com
