EGC Anthology

This project highlights the experiences, wisdom, and impact of mothers of color through the eyes of their daughters. Through short stories, girls of color explore their heritage, develop their voices as writers, and honor their mothers’ stories. By sharing these narratives, the anthology celebrates diversity and empowers the next generation of young women of color.
