WALKING IN MY JOY In These Streets

Jenifer Lewis, actress, activist, and unabashed author, narrates her no-nonsense essays with the confidence of a true icon who is embracing her "wisdom years." Brimming with politics, purpose, self-love, and Trump-hate, this raw account reveals her struggles with bipolar disorder, the painful loss of loved ones, and romantic betrayal, juxtaposed with hilarious tales of friendship, adventure, and living life to the fullest. With its heavy-hitting topics, the memoir isn't always overflowing with joy; instead, it is filled with the adversities that gave rise to her self-acceptance and personal growth. Those familiar with Lewis won't be surprised by this born entertainer's overly dramatic performance, but her powerful delivery is filled with so much love that listeners will find themselves happy to be walking alongside her.
