About the Author
Victoria Green is a graduate of Spelman College, the renowned institution credited for producing African American female leaders, and earned a Master’s degree in Adult Education from Troy University. Her extensive involvement as a professional and spiritual educator and mentor in her community has yielded both the burden and blessing to inspire and empower others through education, especially that of African American females. Her profession to “speak the taboo truth” has led Green to pen entertaining yet inspiring and enlightening works published worldwide, including her first two books, which address sexual abstinence and an interestingly conditional case and rationale of Christian female homosexuality. Her extraordinary story of defying odds ignites great passion and power in her speaking, teaching, and writing.
