How Sweet It Is: Defending the American Dream by Winsome Sears (English) Hardcov

Description: How Sweet It Is by Winsome Sears The first Black woman elected to state-wide office in Virginia reveals in her memoir how her Christian faith, unwavering patriotism, and fervent commitment to conservative principles propelled her to serve and sacrifice for her country and a better future. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Winsome Earle-Sears sent shock waves across Virginia and the country at large when she pulled off her stunning upset victory in November 2021 and became the first woman lieutenant governor of Virginia and the first Black woman, the first naturalized female citizen, and first female veteran elected to state-wide office. She earned intense national coverage because of her unwavering support for Second Amendment rights and her strong commitment to education opportunity for all students. Now in her memoir, How Sweet It Is, Winsome will tell her story and explain how she arrived at that historic moment in time. A devout Christian, Winsome is also a true believer in the promise of the American Dream. Her father was approved to immigrate to the U.S.A. and left Jamaica, arriving in America on August 11, 1963, with only $1.75 in his pocket. Winsome joined him when she was just six years old, and ever since she has never ceased enthusiastically bucking conventions, defying expectations, and charging straight toward challenges. Winsomes remarkable story is one of faith and family, personal loss and perseverance, philanthropy and patriotism, service and sacrifice. But through it all, her Christian faith sustained her, drove her, and compelled her to give back to her community and her country. Her unyielding belief in the fundamental righteousness of America stands in stark opposition to the increasingly pervasive ideologies that are dividing the country. In How Sweet It Is, Winsome encourages Americans to never stop fighting for their country and shows them how to chart a new path forward. Author Biography Author bio: Virginia Lieutenant Governor Winsome Earle-Sears was born in Kingston, Jamaica, in 1964. She is a mother, wife, and is proud to have served in the United States Marines. She was also a hard-charging Vice President of the Virginia State Board of Education, and she received presidential appointments to the U.S. Census Bureau, where she co-chaired the African American Committee, and the Advisory Committee on Women Veterans to the Secretary of Veterans Affairs.In addition to earning a masters degree in organizational leadership from Regent University, Earle-Sears built a successful business as a trained electrician. She understands the importance of helping small businesses thrive but is most proud of her community work leading a mens prison ministry and serving as director of a womens homeless shelter for The Salvation Army. Review "Faith. Service. Sacrifice. Those are just three words that come to mind when one thinks of the life of Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears. Winsome Sears embodies the ideals of the American spirit and exemplifies what it means to live the American Dream. Her powerful, personal story--rooted in fearlessness, optimism, and faith--should uplift and inspire every American."--Mike Pence, 48th vice president of the United States"If the incredible journey of Virginia Lt. Governor Winsome Sears were depicted as fiction, critics would complain that the story was simply not plausible. The very true story of this remarkable woman of faith and family and freedom is an inspiration and serves as a powerful encouragement to those who feel life isnt fair or that they cant succeed in a world where fame, wealth, and influence create all the advantages. Her story reminds us that with God, anything is possible, but that doesnt exclude hard work, taking risks, and persevering through strong head winds. Winsome Sears is not finished with her journey and story--Id submit shes just getting started!"--Mike Huckabee, former governor of Arkansas and host of "Huckabee""Winsome writes her own story of a faith-focused conservative patriot--who happens to be a black woman--who knows how blessed by God she is to be an American. Its an inspiring tale that, thankfully, is still unfolding in our midst, and I cant wait to see the next chapter!"--Ken Cuccinelli, former attorney general of Virginia and former acting deputy secretary of Homeland Security Details ISBN1546004475 Author Winsome Sears Short Title How Sweet It Is Pages 256 Language English Year 2023 ISBN-10 1546004475 ISBN-13 9781546004479 Format Hardcover Imprint Center Street Subtitle Defending the American Dream Publisher Little, Brown & Company Publication Date 2023-08-31 UK Release Date 2023-08-31 Place of Publication New York Country of Publication United States US Release Date 2023-08-31 DEWEY 975.5044092 NZ Release Date 2023-10-30 AU Release Date 2023-10-30 Audience General We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
