Cassandra Jackson attempts to unearth her lost family, while also creating a new one--only to discover little progress separates the past from the present. As she moves back and forth between her girlhood and her journey to motherhood, Jackson reveals the chilling parallels between the harrowing inhumanity of Jim Crow medical care and the toxic discrimination that undergirds healthcare in the United States today.
What The Reviewers Say
Delicate.
Jackson deftly intertwines the story of her search for the truth about "the wreck" with her infertility struggle.
Passionate.
Intimate and candid.
