On Our Mothers and Daughters

This is a collection of stories of the women in my family and my community. There is such a rich history of love and hardships, and I want to share them to share them with you. From Indian attacks to weddings, there is so much to love and learn from these strong women. Though it is far too late to talk with them, it is not too late to take a glimpse into their lives and appreciate all they have done to better life for all of us.
