Channel: CJ Liu
Date: 2021-04-29

C.J. Liu interviews Lorene Cary about her book "Ladysitting: My Year with Nana at the End of her Century". We continue to discuss the rage associated with the loss of power and how this accumulated generation to generation, and how these ancestral traumas are carried in our genes. She describes these maladaptive behaviors as "family curses". Lorene discusses the cycle of persecution and violence that may have started with those on the Mayflower and continued with the rage and shame her grandmother felt through her family lineage. The power in this generation continues with Lorene as she shares her gift as a storyteller and through activism. At the end of the interview, Lorene shares the collective power of African Americans who created the first Black Bank and black cemetery.
