Ancestry, strength, and passion define the writing of author Claudia Dandara. The book brings together texts written over the years and shared privately among family and friends.
“For me, writing is the act of giving voice to words that have been spoken, heard, but not discarded. It is a cry for recognition of causes, of lives, of individuality, of choices of faith, of creed, and of denunciations. One of my focuses is the structural racism prevalent in societies, particularly in Brazilian society, and also denouncing the various forms of prejudice that have surfaced, even more strongly during the health crisis that has afflicted the world and which has resulted in an extremely high death toll in Brazil" - Dandara.
