“Bridges connect to places, but bridges also get walked on…and sometimes with heels.”
Being a bridge is at the same time rewarding and painful.
“Bridges to Heal US: Stories and Strategies for Racial Healing” penned by the author Erin Jones is a book worth reading. This book teaches strategies to the readers that could help them to move their community towards racial justice. This book guides readers to do their part to end the racial discrimination in the United States of America.
This story is both a memoir and an insightful call to action that inspires readers to work towards racial healing. Erin, a brown woman was given birth by a white mother at a hospital in Saint Paul, Minnesota. Her mother gave her up for adoption at the Children’s Home Society where Erin was adopted by a white couple who had never met Black people. The couple was unaware of the challenges they have to face for adopting a black child in a white family.
Readers could take away many useful things from this book. Cover photo is mind blowing and the title is suitable. In this book, the author has not only shared the good about her life but she has also covered the bad and ugly parts of her life. This is a book worth reading. I am glad to get my hands on it.
