"They told her to take a boat back to Haiti. This is the true story of how she dug her voice back up."
Rose-Miliane Rosmain was born in Haiti and raised in Nassau, The Bahamas, where she learned early what it costs to carry a name the world refuses to say right. Claiming Her Voice: A Haitian Girl's Journey is her first book, drawn from her own life: the classrooms, the silences, the faith, and the slow work of learning to speak.
She writes for the quiet kid in the back of the room, the one still deciding whether her voice is worth the risk. Her hope is simple: that someone who feels unseen will read this and stand a little taller.
