This was really good! I really didn’t know anything about this so I’m glad I got to know more. She is such a strong woman with a strong family. It was also interesting to hear about the different culture shocks they went through.

Another biography. This one is Sandra Uwiringiyimana telling her story of surviving a massacre as a child and eventually moving to the United States and her discovery of her own voice as well as the struggles of minorities and the importance of finding healing. This is a very good, emotional read.
