Description
Sometimes life isn't just about the choices WE make, it's about how the choices THEY make, affect us. I Didn't Sign Up For This is an honest and unabashedly bold memoir by a woman thrown into a life of isolation after her husband was convicted of murder.
Sharp witted and bracingly candid, Shabazz unpacks the adverse effects of incarceration on loved ones -often hidden and damaging-to tell a personal story of recovery from shame into a spirit-filled life of advocacy and support for the most vulnerable of society.
Now a public speaker on prison reform, police brutality, and foster care, Shabazz recounts how life sometimes threw her down a well, but how through Islam, tenacity, and guidance, she was able to climb to new heights and rebuild her life. This memoir is for every woman playing the game of life, often with a hand of cards we would much rather throw back in.
