My Journey from the Hood to the Hardwood
Growing up in dire poverty in Suffolk, Virginia, Sugar Rodgers never imagined that she would become an all-star player in the Women's National Basketball Association. Sugar's road to a successful WNBA career is fraught with hardship and tragedy-including her mother's death when she was fourteen, which left her essentially homeless. Throughout it all, Sugar clings to basketball as a way to keep herself focused and sane. In They Better Call Me Sugar, she delivers a powerful message of discipline, perseverance, and self-determination, providing hope and inspiration for young girls and boys everywhere-but especially those growing up in economically challenging conditions.
