Societal forces that shaped her life as a black woman impact Paula’s life. She finds herself attempting to fit into a dominant white society. She describes events from childhood to present that contributed to her life experiences. She addresses her parents’ endeavors to teach her how to assimilate and to value the white culture in order to succeed in life. She finds herself concealing her cultural identify when she is in an all-white environment.

A hurtful childhood encounter shaped her mindset in believing being black was a negative attribute. As a four-year-old, she experienced a very negative situation, which launched the beginning of a trajectory that compelled her to transform her life, by assiduously working diligently to assimilate into a white society. She captivates the love and strong foundation of growing up in a black family. Yet the complexity of doing a “delicate dance” between two cultures was not without anguish.

Paula shares both her outward journey and her inward journey. Although she becomes a successful professional woman, it was fraught with experiencing emotional, mental, and psychological consequences.

Arrived on time and as described
Flavor Name: Bacon, Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1)
It is perfect for my 120 lb dog. He did give up after 6 hours of trying to get the “stuffing” out. The bone held up to his chewing. He loved it!

Be Very Cautious!
Flavor Name: Bacon, Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1)
Splinters easily if you have an aggressive chewer! Although very tasty, within hours of a dog (lab/shepherd mix) I care for excitedly indulging in it, I was picking pieces he easily could have choked on (or worse). The large end of the bone splintered/cracked quicker than other bones he’s had which makes it very dangerous. Value for money is iffy due to that. Bone is a good price but not when it endangers the health of an animal. I gave it 3 stars because it had no smell, dog enjoyed the flavor, but definitely be cautious with this bone!

Dog Loves It
Flavor Name: Bacon, Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1)
My dog, who is a intense chewer, loves these. He has learned how to break them by dropping them from up high, but they still last quite awhile. When he gets thru the filling, we fill with peanut butter for a treat.

Durable construction, including squeakers!
Style: Snake
This is the absolute best toy I've found. My dog is a 40 lb staffie who loves to play tug and chew. I'm used to toys lasting one day to one week and this one lasted about four months of almost constant daily play. The squeakers finally collapsed, so I'm buying my second one. I wish they would embroider the name of their brand on the toy because I forgot what the brand name was and it was hard to find again. Thankfully, I combed through my purchase records and finally found it. This brand definitely is my go-to for durable toys from now on!
