Siblings Kiara and Marcus are scraping by at the Regal-Hi apartment complex in East Oakland where their rent has nearly doubled. Viola Davis shares deep reflections in this love letter to her past, present, and future self, while inspiring readers to embrace who they are and who they were-before the world changed that.

This is the story of Viola Davis, and how she went from a crumbling apartment in Rhode Island, to the biggest stages in New York City, and beyond. What she finds is that there are stories that refuse to be forgotten, and she must face them so that history does not repeat itself.
