- The Huffington Post
“Riffing of the famous words of Malcolm X, this vegan guide for African American women tells ladies how to look their best, ward of health problems, and slim down while keeping their curves. Eighty percent of African American women are overweight, putting them at an increased risk for heart disease, strokes, and diabetes. With more than 40 recipes and menus to help you transition to a vegan lifestyle, author Tracye Lynn McQuirter shows the path to changing that statistic. Written for African American women but applicable to women of all backgrounds, this book is a must-read for anyone transitioning away from an omnivorous diet.”
- Chicago Sun-Times
“From the dairy issue to the protein issue to the carbohydrate issue, the book explains the fundamentals of vegetarianism and veganism in a reader-friendly manner.”
