Description

There is nothing ordinary about the journey we take in life or the people in it. A tale of starting over and an unforgettable odyssey of healing.

How We Healed follows Drunetta Brown, an oppressed black housewife desperate to escape her drunkard husband and small-town southern life. After fleeing with her youngest children to New York City in 1957, she finds unlikely friendship with Sister Rose, a church secretary, and Miss "Raycie" Rayceen, a boisterous bar singer.
