About this listen

Best-selling author Beverly Jenkins makes the move to audiobook with this rich and moving story that introduces us to the beautiful Kansas town of Henry Adams, and the townspeople who make it unique.

Bernadine Brown is a woman with money to spend. Henry Adams is a town in desperate need of cash. But after Bernadine puts up the money, she has some ideas about how the town should be run. Will the townspeople be willing to shake up their comfortable lives to share the gift they’ve been given with others who really need it?

One of the few all Black towns founded after Reconstruction, over a century later Henry Adams was falling apart. So Mayor Trenton July took a chance and put his town up for sale on the internet. With a new owner in town, and the ex-mayor and his friends up in arms and doing everything they can to turn the deal on its head, will this be the death of Henry Adams...or its rebirth?

I loved everything about this story!

This is the kind of story that I’ve been waiting for all of my conscious life! I say conscious life because we all know the many problems we face as a colonized people. We’ve been made aware of this all of our lives through narrative, experiences, losses, and pain. But, Ms. Jenkins’s foresight has demonstrated a very poignant way to address some of the problems. For this, I am deeply appreciative!

Kwanzaa, the only holiday celebrating African American life created by an African man born in America, is based on seven principles called the Nguzo Saba.
Umoja, Unity
Kujichagulia, Self Determination
Ujima, Collective Work & responsibility
Ujamaa, Cooperative Economics
Nia, Purpose
Kuumba, Creativity
Imani, Faith

This book embodies ALL of these principles seamlessly! It is well written, well narrated, and anointed!

A MUST READ!

The Nguzo Saba Exemplified!

Loved the story from the beginning to the end. This is my third Beverly Jenkins #Audible book this Summer, First, "Indigo", then "Belle" and now Blessings. Run quickly and check them all out. These are the stories we should see on the big screen and should be picked up by the likes of #Oprah or #TylerPerry. Keep up the good works #BeverlyJenkins. ~Nubia of NubianQueen Nation on YouTube. and podcast.

Beverly Jenkins Blessings series is one of my favorite. I have read the entire series twice and was glad when I discovered that they are now available in audio form. Ms Freeman did an excellent job of narrating Bring on the Blessings, doing justice to the book. On to book two 😊
