  My mentor, Terrie Williams, Chocolate Pages; other guest:   Real Talk For When There's Nowhere To Go But Up BLACK PAIN It Just Looks Like We're Not Hurting By Terrie M. Williams   "BLACK PAIN brings a new understanding to the widely-held misperceptions and stigmas about depression.  People around the country are now talking about the issue; many have been moved to start speaking about it publicly---by [sharing her story, Terrie] has helped countless fellow sufferers realize that they are not alone.  It's a powerful thing to admit the pain, to seek help, and to move on to a more productive, healthy, and fulfilling life." -Bebe Moore Campbell   Terrie Williams is a woman on fire, and the fuel that keeps that fire raging is the epidemic of emotional pain and depression in Black America. Depression is a catchword in the mainstream media, but among African-Americans it might as well be "the D-word"-the shameful thing nobody talks about, even as it's killing them. But Terrie is not afraid to talk about what depression is doing to the Black community- she's determined to get everyone talking about it, and she will not rest until Black people can freely speak their pain without shame, and start healing. Her groundbreaking new book, BLACK PAIN: It Just Looks Like We're Not Hurting (Scribner; January 8, 2008; $24), is her opening salvo in that battle.     VIEW HER  YOUTUBE VIDEO:   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDD7foNyEV4   (CLICK BLUE LINK)   Despite the disproportionate damage depression does to Black people, it's hardly limited to them. Yet for all we hear about depression on TV talk shows and talk radio, few of us can recognize the symptoms we see every day in ourselves-let alone in other people. Here are just six of Terrie's 20 Signs That You Might Be Depressed: You are always too busy-never have or take the time to give yourself the care you need. You can't ask people for what you need. You can't wait to get home to eat-something, anything-and lots of it. It's the only thing that soothes you. You just don't have energy to do anything-you have to force yourself to do everything. You are not doing work that brings you joy; you are just working a gig, and holding out for the check. You call in sick at least once a month.   Any of these ring a bell? That's because depression doesn't just look like sadness. Depression can look like:   your sister who works eighteen-hour days and hasn't made it to Sunday dinner in weeks. your best friend who's stopped cleaning her house or doing her hair or taking any interest in your friendship. your coworker who's chronically late and blames everyone else for her missed promotions. the corporate executive who needs a bottle of wine and 10 mg. of Ambien to get to sleep every night. the 13-year-old boy who joins a gang because no one else wants him.   Depression looks like all these people, and millions more, because it's an insidious disease that takes as many forms as there are people who suffer from it. So how do we recognize it? How do we treat it? For African Americans BLACK PAIN is the Answer!   In BLACK PAIN, top African-American public relations guru and licensed clinical social worker social worker, Terrie Williams uses her therapeutic training and unparalleled access to take us into the heart of African-American suffering- the heart of BLACK PAIN. Forty years after the book Black Rage explained to all of America what was boiling beneath the surface of brown skins, many African-Americans have turned that rage inward. Black America is suffering from depression, and Terrie Williams is the first person to name that pain in a way that lets us see its on-the-ground face. From the schoolgirl to the gang-banger to the hip-hop star to the corporate executive, she shows us that Black people in this country, even if they're living the American dream, are still fighting a nightmare they can't wake up from, the nightmare of depression.   Never before has a book laid out a community crisis with such sensitivity, such empathy and such clear direction to solutions. By showing us her own pain and the pain of the Black community, Terrie gives us the power to transform our lives. Filled with the untold stories of celebrities like Mike Tyson and Blair Underwood, and the experiences of everyday folks, this book can show you yourself, your parent, your child, your neighbor, and help you take concrete steps to end your suffering. It's time we all came out of the closet about depression, and BLACK PAIN opens the door out of that darkness.   Depressed people are not empowered people-politically, economically, or any other way. Tired of hearing the media ask why Black folks can't "pull themselves up by their bootstraps" Terrie shows how many of the problems that seem economic are really psychological. And until Black people can address their psychological pain, they can't begin to tear down the other obstacles that hold them back. Addressing emotional wounds is the greatest intervention Black people can make, because every other wound starts in the soul.   BLACK PAIN was written from Terrie Williams's fierce desire to reconnect the Black middle class to the urban centers and rural pockets---to bring back Black civic life.   ABOUT THE AUTHOR A licensed clinical social worker by training, Terrie Williams launched the public relations firm, The Terrie Williams Agency, in 1988. The company quickly became one of the most successful PR firms in America, representing top names in entertainment, sports, business and politics such as Miles Davis, Johnnie Cochran, Eddie Murphy, Stephen King, HBO, and Time Warner. After surviving a profound depression, Terrie chronicled her struggle to regain her health in Essence magazine and the feedback was staggering. She continues her work with the agency and she also created the Stay Strong Foundation, which reaches out to anyone of any age suffering from mental illness. Terrie has a BA from Brandeis University and a master's degree in social work from Columbia University. She has one grown son and lives in New York City.  www.TerrieWilliams.com   BLACK PAIN: It Just Looks Like We're Not Hurting By Terrie M. Williams Publication Date: January 8, 2008 352 pages; $24.00

  Vikki Johnson

  Elder Vikki addresses the emotionally crippling behavior of being addicted to counterfeit love. Some people have become so conditioned to being in a pattern of unsatisfying and spiritually draining relationships that they can't recognize what a truly genuine and loving partnership should be. They become accpting of the lies, anguish and humiliation and train themselves to become numb to the emotional pain. Elder Johnson is a graduate of Howard University with a B.A. in Broadcast Management and is the visionary and the voice of "I'm Every Woman," a daily radio commentary on Washington's #1 choice of gospel Heaven 1580AM. The words that Vikki Johnson delivers will help readers identify destructive behavior and encourage them to demand the love that they are entitled to. see www.eldervikkijohnson.org
