About this listen
A stunning, poetic debut audiobook from Pasha Westbrook about honoring one's roots and the unbreakable bond of familial love, brought to life.
Father braids my hair, just like his,
scented of coconut oil, the familiar tug of fingers on my scalp,
love in every twist...
As a young girl's father lovingly yet painstakingly braids her hair, he weaves a story about the strength and resilience of their ancestors, Freedmen who walked the Trail of Tears from Mississippi to Oklahoma.
In this enchanting audiobook, past and present come together in a tale about endurance, history, and love.
