A fun, provocative, and entertaining dialogue with an award winning cast, these ladies are raising the curtain to talk about the POCKETBOOK, the label black women affectionately describe as the triangle between their thighs.

"Finally, women of color are telling their own stories about sexuality."
~ Chicago Tribune

The term, "pocketbook," was used by many older African-American women when the subject of sexuality was discussed privately.  Author Sharon K. McGhee keeps the woman-of-color female perspective front and center. The Pocketbook Monologues has started a movement with a mission of empowering and entertaining women of color about HIV/Aids.

"Every capable woman has a role to play to combat the spread of HIV/AIDS. Sharon McGhee is stepping up and embracing a concept that I have been advocating throughout my career, the truth!" --Dr Joycelyn Elders Former U.S. Surgeon General
