A Black Girl's Trauma: Volume One - Rose-Colored Lenses
By Dajaha Dior Halliday Blair
Journee was born in the heart of Philadelphia, but the streets that raised her didn't offer directions-only detours, dead ends, and dreams deferred. Raised by a God-fearing mother and abandoned by a father consumed by addiction, she learns early how to survive but never how to truly see. Her vision-skewed by pain, shaped by silence-is filtered through rose-colored lenses, a fragile shield against a world that was never soft to begin with.
This is more than one girl's coming-of-age story. It is a haunting inheritance-trauma stitched into the seams of Black girlhood, passed down like heirlooms from mother to daughter. It's about the quiet violence of generational lies, about matriarchs holding families together with trembling hands and iron wills. It's about Black children forced to grow up in the wreckage of broken patriarchies, told to chase an illusion of excellence while never being taught that their existence alone is extraordinary.
Journee's journey is not just hers. It echoes through the bloodlines, through the hushes and the heartbreaks, through the aching spaces where truth was too dangerous to speak. Her story is a mirror held up to everything we were told to bury-and a torch for those ready to burn the blueprint and build anew.
A Black Girl's Trauma is not just a novel series. It's a reckoning. A resistance. A revelation.
