About this listen

1960 - Black, African, female, and a student at Cambridge. Who would have thought it? As Mama often said, her only reason for sending me to school was because she wanted someone to read her letters to her.

December 1960 - Raped, broken, and all alone in a foreign land, the system became my family. I have had my baby and given up my child to the care system.

It’s been more than four decades since Cambridge, my life couldn’t be better. In one moment, my peace is shattered, and secrets are revealed. As they say, "the time of reckoning has come". When my secrets are revealed some of the consequences are devastating.

For the mixed race baby who is born in a time when racism is at its height, to deal with rejection from birth. Left alone to deal with institutionalism and racial stereotyping, how does he turn out? What does he demand from those who decided there was no place for him in their lives?

For everyone else in this story, where is the trust they knew? What is the truth, and can they ever trust again?

This is Chioma’s story!

Who else has the scars

You finish the book and you wonder how many other women bear similar scars from cuts that run very deep from years yonder. It brings to mind the tears of Christine Blasey Ford as she accused Brett Kavanaugh of similar infractions. How many of our mother's had to live with such pain. Good book!
