SLAY IN YOUR LANE
Elizabeth Uviebinene Yomi Adegoke
The Black Girl Bible
An inspirational, important book for young women: had nine publishers bidding at auction
SLAY IN YOUR LANE is for a new generation of women of colour who want success in every area of their lives: in the workplace, love, sex, representation, and more. It's about recognising and celebrating the strides women of colour have made so far, inspiring those who want to follow them and challenging complacency and
status quo to forge a better, visible future. For women who want to make Lemonade out of lemons, like Beyonce.
Infectiously smart, funny and furious, Yomi and Elizabeth despaired at the lack of inspirational writing for young women like them. SLAY IN YOUR LANE is the answer. Leading the reader from the end of school to her early 30s, Yomi and Elizabeth jump into the conversation on behalf of their friends and themselves, tackling issues unique to being young, female and black. Interviewing over 40 successful women across various vocations, SLAY IN YOUR LANE is full of life advice and a rallying cry for change. Picked as a 2018 hotly-anticipated book, by Guardian, ELLE and Metro.
