Summary.ReviewsFanny Brewster provides a necessary exploration of the impact on African-Americans of a devastating evil of slavery, the tearing of children away from their mothers. She writes with passion and power, using the lens of Jungian archetypes in conjunction with her profound understanding of African-American culture, to decipher the complexities of slavery's aftermath. Considering past, future, and spiritual integrity, she leads us to an understanding of feelings that still reverberate, archetypal grief as a steady-state, pervasive element over a lifetime, within a culture of resilience and survival. - Merle Molofsky, NCPsyA, LP, Psychoanalyst, faculty member and Advisory Board, Harlem Familyã Institute, USA; faculty member, NPAP Author InformationFanny Brewster, PhD, is a Jungian analyst and Professor at Pacifica Graduate Institute, USA.
