In her new book Dr. Ahmondra McClendon reveals how The Legacy of Silence, a generational pattern of behavior, has tarnished Black Women's identities, stolen their power, dimmed their voices, and impacted their well-being.
Black women have been taught to be silent for generations. This silence has been passed down from mother to daughter, profoundly impacting Black Women's worldview.
As an Interfaith Minister and Social Worker, Dr. Ahmondra brings a unique perspective to the function of silence and its impact on Black Women. "This silence has stolen our power, dimmed our voices, and impacted our well-being. It is time to break The Legacy of Silence and reclaim our voices."
Dr. Ahmondra's book delivers a powerful and moving account of her journey to break The Legacy of silence and reclaim her power. It is a must-read for Black Women of all ages seeking to better understand themselves and their ancestral heritage. It is also a valuable resource for those who work with Black Women or are interested in learning more about their challenges.
Following her journey, readers witness the strength, courage, and resiliency Black Women exhibit while keeping painful secrets of childhood trauma, domestic violence, drug addiction, and paralyzing grief hidden deep within.
The Uncrowned Queen is a must-read for Black Women of all ages seeking to better understand themselves and their ancestral heritage. It is also a valuable resource for those who work with Black Women or are interested in learning more about their challenges.

Dr. Rev. Ahmondra McClendon, an ordained Interfaith Minister, holds a Master of Social Work Degree from San Francisco State University and a Doctor of Ministry Degree from New York Theological Seminary. With thirty-five + years in human service delivery, she has a unique insight into life.
Although her life is in harmony now, it wasn't always. For many years she existed within The Legacy of Silence, a generational pattern of behavior. Living behind a wall of silence, she was trapped in a world of painful secrets while acting as if everything was okay. Then, realizing that circumstances did not have to determine her future, Dr. Ahmondra changed her thinking. Making herself the priority in life, she transitioned from pain into passion.
A passionate advocate for healing, Dr. Ahmondra has an urgent call to action for Black Women from the African Diaspora. "For decades, we've been at the forefront of the fight for justice, saving everyone while suffering silently. NO MORE! It is time for "US TOO" refocus our attention." To facilitate change, she created The Original Queens Sacred Community. It is a safe space for "US TOO" to gather in Sistahood, speak truths, recognize triumphs, and begin generational healing within the new Black Women's liberation movement of "US TOO."
