Join Healing Guided Writer, Victoria Johnson as she journeys through language, Lineage, and genealogy at the Orange Mound Library.
Words are DNA. Stories are survival. In the cadence of our grandmother's prayers, the slang we code-switch between worlds, the silence that speaks volumes—we carry entire civilizations on our tongues. This is where language becomes lineage, lore becomes liberation, and every voice that came before echoes in the stories we tell today. Come write the words that raised you.
