Review:
"Here is a...profound story showing us the doorway to ecstasy, empowerment and joy!" -- Margot Adler, author of Drawing Down the Moon and Heretic's Heart

"An exceptionally stirring and perceptive personal story that is absorbing, and a source of insight and inspiration into bringing the divine daughter archetype to life." -- Jean Shinoda Bolen, M.D., author of Goddesses in Everywoman and Crossing to Avalon

"May I never again use a phrase like 'finding voice' or 'embodied knowledge' as though I thought I knew what it meant. Rachel Bagby has picked me up gently and shaken me hard, and for all she has taught me I am forever grateful. For it's one thing to know in a general way that sexism is intimately connected with racism. But Divine Daughters takes us way past theory, to the places deep inside ourselves where "othering" has hurt us the most, and where our own acts of "othering" start as well: more than that, it offers us powerful strategies whole-voiced, whole-bodied, redemptive and sometimes riotous for turning it all around." -- Carol Lee Flinders, author of At the Root of This Longing and Enduring Grace

"Rachel Bagby believes passionately in the concept of music as a life-sustaining spirit, a nurturing umbilical cord that weaves and flows through our lives, joining us together." -- Bobby McFerrin, musician

"Rachel Bagby is an inspiration, a gift, a divine voice for our time." -- Daniel Goleman, author of Emotional Intelligence

"This is a narrative of deep seeing and clear feeling. Rachel, the wounded healer, offers us the transforming solace of her truth." -- Carolyn Brown, Center for Contemplative Mind in Society

Divine Daughters is a hymn to the power of one woman's voice. Rachel Bagby embodies a voice of sanity. Through her courage and capacity to listen, she sings down the chants of slavery and bigotry and longing and begins a new song of healing and reverence for all life. Within her heart and the heart of her family and community, we recognize an awakening. This is a story of grace. After reading this book, I walked outside to a quiet place. I could still hear the bittersweet music rising from these pages, offerings of bold peace. -- Terry Tempest Williams, author of Desert Quartet

As an instinctive, truly original voice, Rachel Bagby has written the tale of a journey of spiritual, literary and political awakening to self authority. Divine Daughters breaks the boundaries of the usual narratives about coming into power as a woman in America by showing how the soul, while informed by it's experiences of race and gender, need not be limited by stereotypes or categories. -- Naomi Wolf, author of Promiscuities
