Being Black by Angel Kyodo Williams

Being Black by Angel Kyodo Williams

Honest, courageous. Williams has committed an act of love.--Alice Walker

A classic.--Jack Kornfield

There truly is an art to being here in this world, and like any art, it can be mastered.

In this elegant, practical book, Angel Kyodo Williams combines the universal wisdom of Buddhism with an inspirational call for self-acceptance and community empowerment. Written by a woman who grew up facing the challenges that confront African-Americans every day, Being Black teaches us how a warrior spirit of truth and responsibility can be developed into the foundation for real happiness and personal transformation. With her eloquent, hip, and honest perspective, Williams--a Zen priest, social activist, and entrepreneur--shares personal stories, time-tested teachings, and simple guidelines that invite readers of all faiths to step into the freedom of a life lived with fearlessness and grace.

"There is nothing quite like this lean, honest, courageous presentation of the Dharma" - Alice Walker "...an important new step for Dharma in the West, her book is a classic." - Jack Kornfield

Angel Kyodo Williams is an ordained Zen priest and the founder of the Urban Peace Project, as well as the publisher of eDharma.com, a popular Buddhist on-line directory. She has also cofounded the first black-owned Internet Cafe.
