Summary

Home Is Us tells the story of my mother’s struggle to protect herself, and her daughters from harm. Our story moves from the shared trauma of violence, through our fight for education, safety, and independence. My family’s songs, prayers, and spoken word have given me a greater awareness of myself, how we survived, and continue to thrive. 

Shared here now, for you to listen.
