It’s Your Story to Tell is a memoir, a collection of essays about how identities are formed, who has the power to form them, and why it is important to be the designer of your own identity as well as the one to tell the story of who you are. The book was inspired by the coolest kid on the planet, my child. It is a reinvestigation of my own identity due to my child’s willingness to question their own.
