Community Organizer. Mother. Yes, I can raise four children,
but who are we outside of Cambridge? Yes, while we are a highly educated group, there is so much more for us to learn, especially as we process the culture shock of leaving Cambridge. Yes, while world renowned universities are farther away, they are still in our faces, outside of Cambridge. Yes, we still embrace diversity, though it is harder to find it, outside of Cambridge. Yes, we need to discuss racism, even outside of Cambridge. And yes, while back in the land where I was raised, I may still feel in the minority as a Christian, though for different reasons, outside of Cambridge. There are things we need to discuss, even outside of Cambridge. Publications.

My Story
Back in junior high my best friend gave me a wicker basket full of pencils, legal pads, journals and books on "how to write”. It remains one of the best presents I have ever received. Writing was pushed to the side for many years as I trained to be a doctor and later left that path to stay at home with my four kids. Today though, I am thankful for this space where I can write and encourage community bonding through avenues like book club. |
