Wanting to give a voice to her lineage and to the Hispanic community, our storyteller today, Nicole, shares the story of her paternal grandmother, Olivia. Olivia’s story is a reminder that no matter where your origins are, you have the capability to set your mind to something and bring yourself to your own freedom, to create a life that is the one you want to create. Experiencing shame and disappointment with regards her parents at young age, young Olivia swore to herself she would get an education and break free of a community filled with poverty.
Nicole shares with us the power of names, how her grandmother’s decision created a domino effect for later generations, and the courage to look back and forgive your past.
