This book is a volume put together by a dozen of mostly first-time female writers. It shares the highlights from these women's lives, before and after immigrating. It also explores the highlights of those born in Canada, and their "Canadian" lives. These women have roots from diverse parts of the world – which includes Africa, the Caribbean, different parts of Asia, and from the different Canadian provinces in which they were born. Their hope is to invite members from the dominant-white community to explore lives that are quite different from theirs, and to learn about, as well as, to celebrate the rich diversity in the Canadian society.
