She married Ukali White in 1994 and the two have 4 children, three of whom have graduated from homeschool and whose writings are often featured along with her own.
Selena is not only an author, she’s also an educator, a public speaker, a workshop presenter, a mentor to women, and a sought after private tutor. She has a heart for teaching History to the next generation, especially the History of people of African descent. Her ‘Representation Matters’ teaching series does exactly that and has been viewed by many via Facebook Live Video.
Selena and her family have attended Christ Community Chapel in the Highland Square area of Akron, Ohio since it was established. They were drawn there because of the opportunity to be part of a multi-ethnic Christian community. Their passion from the beginning has been to help followers of Christ, of different ethnic groups, break down the barriers between them to build authentic and lasting relationships.
As a 43-year-old woman of color, Selena writes from her experiences and from the perspectives of a wife, mother, daughter, teacher, and a follower of Christ. It is her desire that her writing becomes one of the many tools in the fight to bridge the ever-widening gaps between ‘black’ and ‘white’.view less
