Summary
INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A glorious chronicle of a life like none other—enlightening, entertaining, surprising, empowering—and a testament to the world-changing power of Black motherhood

“A beautiful and brave story of strong women, fierce mothering, and the power of continued evolution.”—Michelle Obama

“A fascinating memoir of Tina Knowles’s journey to become the global figure she is today.”—Oprah Winfrey

“Told in rich color with flourishes so detailed . . . they conjure a fully realized world the reader can inhabit.”—The Washington Post

Here is a page-turning chronicle of family love and heartbreak, loss and perseverance, and the kind of creativity, audacity, and will it takes for a girl from Galveston to change the world. Matriarch is one brilliant woman’s intimate and revealing story, and a multigenerational family saga that carries within it the story of America—and the wisdom that women pass on to each other, mothers to daughters, across generations.

She’s is a inspiration ❤️

Mama Tina! As the story was read and the emotions poured out, I cried along too. I wondered about the devorices, the pregnancy talk, Uncle Johnnie and all was discussed here. While I am a Beyonce' fan, I was grateful that this story was about Mama Tina, Solange, Kelly, Angie and the rest of the crew, not just Beyonce. I enjoyed seeing how it was for a youth growing up in a time where there were protests and marches against racism. So much of Destiny's Child's success wasn't just because of Matthew, but also because of the sacrifices Mama Tina made. It is SO good to be able to see Mama Tina have her moment! While I bought the audio book, I now need to buy a hard copy for my collection!

Mama Tina- You've been through it all. Your story of legacy & love is so inspiring! Her recollection of her life is historically insightful of racism in our country and music industry. She has forged a path for generations to come and deserves a name like Matriarch.

Soul-baring journey shared with rare authenticity. "Thank you" for that and for how you intertwined the historical trauma and resilience of being Black in America.
