5.0 out of 5 stars No Disrespect, 25 Nov 2002
After reading Souljah's other work (The Coldest Winter Ever), I frantically searched for another offering from her. "No Disrespect" made the search very worthwhile. It is an honest and open account of Souljah's life experiences that makes you thankful for the dramas (or lack of) in your own life. Just when you think Souljah has had to deal with enough, she goes on to tell of more that she has dealt with. Reading this book made me realise what kind of person the term 'strong, Black Sista' was coined for. Anyone who thinks they have had hard life-experiences should read this. It is definitely a must-read!!

5.0 out of 5 stars WOW, 6 Oct 2005
This book was powerful from the beginning I felt that Sista Souljah has set an example, and overcome mant adversities in her life... The promotion of Respect is just what the younger generation need... I feel I connected to this book in many ways its an excellent book...

5.0 out of 5 stars A book that needs to be read!, 22 Jul 2004
I received the book yesterday and am still lingering at chapter 3 due to the fruitfulness of the novel. Although I have read her 2nd book, this book is breathtaking in a way that it draws you closer to her as an individual, in comparison to 2nd book although it is another great read. Everytime I come across something intriguing i turn to the front of the book and glimpse at her and wonder how she overcame the distresses in the book. Being a young black girl in london(17yrs)i feel the way in which she promotes the fact that we are being restrained by white people, but then again i feel that some of the accusations thrwn at the whites should not be used as excuses to cover our mess, e.g Nathan claiming racism caused him to be gay. The book on the otherhand helps young black girls as we try to put together the perfect image of a strong black man and the things that keep them strong, and what makes them weak. I like the way she also portrays herself as a very fortnate person who intrigues men in a blazing way. Woman in a whole need to embrace these virtues and become real women in the eyes of men. This book is very educating as well as fun to read, as I read the book I learn more and more about my past and am able to put pieces together. thank you Sister Souljah. YOUR NO.1 FAN FOR LIFE
