1st African American woman to Coach Basketball in the Big 8 and Big 12 conferences
Well, Darling, I've got a lot to say...
About not letting circumstances define you.
About being a Black female administrator in the 1970s.
About Kansas women's basketball.
Fought for equality and excellence during resistance to Title IX.
About tough times and the spirit inside of me that I still have today.
My autobiography, FIERCE: My Fight for Nothing Less, is available now.
I hope you will enjoy reading it as much I enjoyed writing it.
