“I have been in the social service field for over 20 years and have reviewed hundreds if not thousands of films about issues that affect is one of the best I have ever seen.

Dr. Dwayne, First of all, like with movies when something doesn't catch my attention I'm easily bored and I stop reading and watching. Let’s just say I'm still reading!! Unconditional Love: What Every Woman and Man Desires in a Relationship is awesome! Have a whole lot of questions. I really liked the poem!!!

"The seminar you presented entitled “Building Powerful Families” at our National Black Catholic Men’s Conference in Atlanta, Georgia was outstanding and The Bowman Francis Team looks forward to another successful conference in Birmingham, Alabama. "
- Fr. Chester Smith, SVD, The Bowman Francis Ministry (Indianapolis, IN)
"Let me first start off by saying Dr. Buckingham you are truly a man of God I went to your seminar and it touched the inner core of my soul. This seminar made you face those character flaws and why we as women behave the way we do. I have always lived in fear, always afraid of trying the simplest things in life due to having been raised by an intimidating and controlling that haunted me for so long. After leaving the seminar I read your book twice and bought a copy for my daughter. Thank you man of God!"
- Sylvia Brown (St. Louis, MO)
No one can match Dr. Dwayne Buckingham when it comes to self motivation. His book, Unconditional Love: What Every Woman and Man Desires in a Relationship is a very inspiring and enlightening book that causes individuals to self reflect as they embark on their journey to building and strengthening relationships. Steve Harvey’s book provides good insight into how a man thinks, but Dwayne Buckingham’s book provides excellent insight that helps women understand how to love themselves and their men. A must have!
- Dr. Stacey Nichols (St. Louis, MO)
"A Black Woman's Worth" was truly the fresh breath I was waiting to inhale. The message brought down the walls that seem to divide the black man from the black woman from slavery to the present day. For the first time in a long time, the love I’ve given, the sacrifices and contributions I've made were recognized. I felt understood and like the songstress said, "I Feel Like Going On."
- Pastor Denise Johnson, New Journey Baptist Church (St. Louis, MO)

Thank for allowing me the opportunity to read your book. I am so happy someone was bold enough to finally speak the truth."

"Brother Buckingham is a diamond is the rough. His book entitled "A Black Man's Worth " is a must have.

"An outstanding man in my life that has committed himself to making this a better world is my life coach, Dr. Dwayne L. Buckingham. Through his achievements he has been a father figure to everyone he comes into contact with. Dr. Buckingham is a psychotherapist, author, activist, and CEO/founder of R.E.A.L. Horizons Consulting Service, LLC. He believes everyone should know and understand their worth and has communicated those beliefs through multiple seminars and his two books, A Black Man's Worth: Conqueror and Head of Household and A Black Woman's Worth: My Queen and Backbone.
I met Dr. Buckingham and immediately knew that he was a respectable man. Dr. Buckingham has been guidance in my life by helping me set goals, prepare for my future, and understand my self worth. I read A Black Woman’s Worth, after having a long personal conversation with Dr. Buckingham about relationships.
The book gave me insight and knowledge about being in a healthy relationship with a male. Not having a father figure growing up and few respectable women role models, Dr. Buckingham took me under his presence and made me realize how important my temple is (body) and my worth as a young woman. I encourage others to get to know this positive powerful gentleman that has committed himself to others. Dr. Dwayne L. Buckingham deserves to be celebrated as a man that’s making a difference."
- Vivian Williams (Atlanta, GA)
