Theory of profound knowing: A study of nurse-midwifery knowledge Book

As a child in Florida, Zora Hurston loved to climb a chinaberry tree to look out over the lands that lay beyond her small town and dreamed of going there. Her mother encouraged her dreaming and told her that she could be anything that she wanted to be. Her father, on the other hand, said that tree climbing was for boys, and Zora would do better by wearing a dress and do more traditionally female activities. The future author and folklorist decided to follow her mother’s advice.
