    Description

    *Content warning: book banning, rape, sexual abuse, domestic violence, racism, lynching, and murder.

    Cassandra Lane is an award-winning author, journalist, artist, and speaker. Her beautiful memoir, We Are Bridges, is a labor of love born from generational trauma, as well as years of healing (and honing her craft). We are honored that Cassandra was willing to speak with us about what came next after her great-grandfather’s lynching in the early 1900’s, and how she was left healing her family’s residual trauma upon her entrance to motherhood.
