“Support Our Sisters Memoir and contribute."

Donation protected

1995, my sister Jae and I were shot by our own father, Willie Roberts.

Our baby sister, Aqueelah, was murdered that day.


Jae was left paralyzed from the waist down, and I was physically wounded and emotionally shattered.


On May 23, 2025, Willie Roberts—our shooter—walked out of prison a free man.

He walked out with the same legs that my sister can no longer use.

She lives every day in a new body, confined to a chair, while the man who took everything from us breathes the fresh air of freedom.


But we survived. And now we know why.


The Most High—(Ahayah)—spared our lives for a purpose greater than us.

He didn’t keep us alive just to survive, but to speak up, stand up, and fight for others who are suffering in silence.


We smile—but it’s the kind of smile that hides decades of pain. Behind every brave face is a story still healing. But we keep going, not because it’s easy, but because our purpose is bigger than our pain.


We’ve written a powerful manuscript, a story rooted in trauma, survival, and divine assignment. It’s raw, real, and ready to tear the mask off:


Domestic violence

Sexual abuse

Child abuse

Mental health struggles caused by trauma

Addictions that grow from pain and grief


This isn’t just a book. This is a movement.

It’s a cry for healing, a call for justice, and a blueprint for escape—for those still trapped in abusive homes, unsafe relationships, or dangerous cycles.


Why We Need Your Help:


We’ve already connected with a publishing company willing to bring this story to life. But we’ve been given a strict time limit to raise funds before the opportunity is lost. We’re stepping out in faith, but we can’t do this alone.


Your donation will help us:


Professionally publish our book by Domestic Violence Awareness Month (October 2025)

✅ Launch as public speakers and advocates for survivors

✅ Open safe places and transitional housing for victims of abuse and trauma

✅ Educate others on how to recognize red flags, plan their escape, and survive safely

This mission is spiritual. The blood of the Messiah (Yashayah) covers it.

This is not just our bravery—it’s the Spirit of the Most High (Ahayah) working through us.

We are not ashamed of our story. This is not for pity. This is for purpose.


This is REAL.

We recently shared our story with the news. Watch it here:

We’re not hiding. We’re not holding back.

We are survivors—not by chance, but by divine design.


My Hebrew name is Draya meaning strong. And I am strong because He made me strong.

My sister Jae is strong. We are no longer victims. We are the voices of the ones still trapped in silence.”


This mission goes beyond a book. It’s a movement led by the Most High(Ahayah) to save lives shift minds, and break generational curses.


Please support, donate, or share this campaign.

If you’ve ever been abused or know someone who has, this is for you too.

Let’s walk in truth. Let’s walk in power. Let’s show the world what real survival looks like.


Thank you,

Rasheedah Paige (Draya) & Sister Jae
