Our talented leading lady, Tanajsia Slaughter, not only speaks many languages, she also writes books. She recently published her latest titled: Freedom.

"This is the first book in a series of poetry and memoirs inspired by the healing journey of a young woman faced with no other choice than to take her pain and turn it into something beautiful."
