Event Description

Author Nika C. Beamon will be signing copies of her new non-fiction book, I Didn’t Work This Hard Just to Get Married. It celebrates female independence and perseverance. Through lively and revealing interviews with women from various walks of life, Nika C. Beamon explores the challenges facing single black women who defy expectations. They candidly discuss aging without a man and reevaluate dating, single homeownership, career, children, and caring for aged parents. The book speaks directly to the black woman’s experience, addressing challenges such as income discrepancies between genders, the high rate of male incarceration, and the Baby Mama Syndrome.

Written in the best tradition of women talking to women, and girlfriend to girlfriend, the book delivers tales of lessons learned, hard times and good times, told by women who found ways to achieve their dreams by defying convention.

It's available for order now on Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble.com, Borders.com and Tower.com.
