Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Marked by History begins with a medical form and a question that should have been simple: What do you know about your family history For Cathy R. Foreman, that question opens into something much larger than names, dates, and diagnoses. It becomes an exploration of what is known, what is missing, and what generations of silence, survival, and incomplete records can leave behind.Drawing on historical events, family records, medical context, personal reflection, and ancestral memory, Marked by History examines how the past continues to shape the way Black families understand health, identity, trust, and belonging. From death certificates and inherited stories to medical exploitation, racial disparities, and the limits of what official records can hold, Foreman traces the marks history leaves on bodies, families, and communities.This is neither a traditional memoir nor a search for a single answer.
