Celebrate. Commemorate. Lift Every Voice.
#BlackJoy—NOW, When We Need It Most!
May 18, 2025

Welcome, I’m Janus Adams.

Journalist. Historian. Producer. Author. 

I rewrite history, filling in its missing pieces to make us whole.  

When my book, Sister Days: 365 Inspired Moments in African American Women’s History, was published 25 years ago, it changed the way our herstory was told; and changed the way we saw ourselves—each and every day.  Looking into the mirror of memory, I’d searched for the reflection of my mother, my grandmothers, theirs—and yours.  From the stories they told me to keep came the knowledge I needed: the inspiration and imagination that forged my life—that made you and me who we are. 

That’s what I knew I had to share with you, especially now: our history, heritage, and hope.  #BlackJoy.

Now, for this SISTER DAYS @ 25 anniversary, my daughters and I invite you to join us via Zoom on Sunday, May 18, 2025—the Sunday after Mother’s Day.  A once-in-a-generation event honoring our mothers, foremothers, sisters, sistas—ourselves—it’s the Mother’s Day gift that keeps giving.  

Welcome, I’m Janus Adams.

TESTIMONIAL

“Janus Adams’ books are vitamins for the soul.”

Nick Taliaferro Talk Show Host

“A book to be handed down—just like a family Bible—to be read by family member after family member, generation after generation.”

Hattie Winston Actor

“Janus Adams dazzles us with her poetic and inspirational interpretation of a critical juncture in our nation’s history.”

Sharon Robinson Author and Educator

"Embracing all the days of our lives, each page recounts a happening— concisely and in context. Study up on history and be encouraged by past glories, daring actions and events that changed the way we live."

Tonya Bolden YSB

"Adams' inventiveness and keen imagination are remarkable in presenting what otherwise might be termed "dry" historical information. Where in the world did she get the idea that something as ordinary as an index could be such a tool of empowerment?"

Carol Taylor New York City Sun

“I’ve added [Adams' book] to my morning ritual of inspirational reading.”

Fort Worth Star-Telegram

“Poignant. Everyone should have special days in his or her life. And it's important that we share those with each other. And, of course, the writing is beautiful.”

Nicki Brown Bank President

"A collection of moving stories that celebrate the lives of Black women who have overcome the many obstacles in their paths to pursue their dreams."

African Sun Times

“You learn something new every day. It just goes to show you’re never too old to learn about our past. That just made me feel good all over.”

Audience member.

“This book offers answers for people meeting challenges. The challenges that face us today are not new. We look back to see how our forebears met these challenges and we know how to make it through.”

R. Steven Norman III Archivist & Pastor
