A Taste of Power: A Black Woman's Story"A stunning picture of a black woman's coming of age in America. Put it on the shelf beside The Autobiography of Malcolm X." Kirkus Reviews Elaine Brown assumed her role as the first and only female leader of the Black Panther Party with these words: "I have all the guns and all the money.

"A stunning picture of a black woman's coming of age in America. Put it on the shelf beside The Autobiography of Malcolm X." --Kirkus Reviews Elaine Brown assumed her role as the first and only female leader of the Black Panther Party with these words: "I have all the guns and all the money. I can withstand challenge from without and from within. Am I right, Comrade?" It was August 1974. From a small Oakland-based cell, the Panthers had grown to become a revolutionary national organization, mobilizing black communities and white supporters across the country--but relentlessly targeted by the police and the FBI, and increasingly riven by violence and strife within. How Brown came to a position of power over this paramilitary, male-dominated organization, and what she did with that power, is a riveting, unsparing account of self-discovery. Brown's story begins with growing up in an impoverished neighborhood in Philadelphia and attending a predominantly white school, where she first sensed what it meant to be black, female, and poor in America. She describes her political awakening during the bohemian years of her adolescence, and her time as a foot soldier for the Panthers, who seemed to hold the promise of redemption. And she tells of her ascent into the upper echelons of Panther leadership: her tumultuous relationship with the charismatic Huey Newton, who would become her lover and her nemesis; her experience with the male power rituals that would sow the seeds of the party's demise; and the scars that she both suffered and inflicted in that era's paradigm-shifting clashes of sex and power. Stunning, lyrical, and acute, this is the indelible testimony of a black woman's battle to define herself. "A glowing achievement." --Los Angeles Times"Honest, funny, subjective, unsparing, and passionate. . . A Taste of Power weaves autobiography and political history into a story that fascinates and illuminates." --The Washington Post

I used two Lolalet stands to display special Christmas ornaments that represent countries I have visited. They look terrific displayed this way! I will purchase more as my travels continue.

I wish it was a little bit taller
Color: Black, Color: Black
I love the way this necklace stand looks. It is visually captivating and has a sculpture-like appearance. I looked at a lot of other necklace stands and didn’t see another that didn’t require pulling one necklace over another to get it off and is visually appealing. There are a lot that do one, but not the other.
I do wish it was 1.5” taller or spiraled down at a little bit shorter pace. I have mostly long necklaces and the bottom few hooks won’t be usable. Also, I feel like there could be a bit less space between the hooks which would allow more hooks to be inserted.
Overall I think this is great! It is beautiful and generally very useful.

No more tangled necklaces.
Color: Black
I found the necklace stand to be exactly what was needed. It's not to tall or short and can be adjusted with the rods. Great for the price.
