Whispers of Destiny: A Unique Journey Through Family, Identity, and Choices in 'Returning the Bones'
It's Tuesday! I had the honor of chatting with the amazing Gin Hammond about her book Returning the Bones. Imagine being in Jim Crow-era Texas, walking in the shoes of a fierce young black medical student, hustling to find her spot in the world. And guess what? This story is woven from Gin's own family history - her aunt, Dr. Carolyn Beatrice Montier. We're diving deep into life's tough choices - how to balance your nation, your people, and you. Stay tuned, it's gonna be real talk! #BetweenTheReads #ReturningTheBones #MustListen
