Madame Ph.D.: Growing Up Black in DC and Beating the Odds: Nettie's DC Story of Perseverance, Hope and Determination (PHD)


Overview

In an inspiring and intimate narrative, Lacy chronicles her journey from a challenging childhood to remarkable achievements as a Ph.D. Lacy unveils her evolution into a math whiz, a pioneering figure in STEM, a high school cheerleader, and an unwavering activist. With a prestigious tuition scholarship to the former all-male Lincoln University in Pennsylvania, she not only pledged Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, but graduated magna cum laude in just three years, receiving her department's Wall Street Journal Award. As the great-great-great-granddaughter of a female slave, Lacy provides a powerful perspective on pivotal events in American history, including the Civil Rights Movement, significant assassinations, riots, and the Vietnam War in the 1960s and 70s. Her story is not just about struggles; it's also a celebration of victories marked by laughter, love, and joy. Lacy illustrates how she crafted a meaningful life through perseverance, hope, and determination (PHD). ""Madame Ph.D."" is not just a book; it's a testament to the triumph of an African American woman who rose from the inner city of Washington, D.C., to achieve professional success as a college professor and administrator, an esteemed international management consultant, and a dynamic motivational speaker.
