About this listen

Set early in the time of America's burgeoning Civil Rights Movement, Breaking the Line: Victoria's Beginning follows the life of young Christian girl, Victoria Roberts. Victoria is born to Black parents, Tess and Clyde who despise that Victoria looks more White like her wealthy paternal grandfather, Paul Roberts. Rejected at an early age by her parents, Victoria is sent to Dallas to live with her childless aunts, Charlotte and Mary. Charlotte is a wealthy widow, and Mary is clairvoyant.

Mary has seen the difficult road ahead for Victoria if she makes the wrong choices. Because of this, Charlotte, Mary, and Victoria's maternal grandparents, Chandra and Ed, shower Victoria with love and encourage her unique intelligence and talents to help keep her on the right path. However, Clyde and Tess, along with Clyde's domineering, voodoo practicing mother, Betts, begin to spitefully interfere and attempt to crush and cower Victoria's spirit.

Can Victoria withstand the vindictive influence of Betts and her parentsundefined Will she be able to remain true to her faith and herself to overcome the trials of her childhood and find her destiny as an adult undefined or will she succumb to evil and find herself creating a line that she cannot break undefined.
