The Light We Carry

Michelle Obama’s The Light We Carry is a guide to resilience and lessening uncertainty. In her own words and her own voice, former First Lady of the United States Michelle Obama shares personal stories and observations and speaks frankly about how she and her family—like all American families—have been affected by the national health crisis, the complex implications of race, gender, and identity, and the reality of growing up with two parents navigating pay inequality, long hours, and his and her career stress.
