“Uncovering Hidden Truths: Caroline Topperman Reveals the Secrets Behind ‘Your Roots Cast a Shadow'”
I felt it keenly when we landed in Poland and I found out that the place we’d rented was around the corner from where my family lived after the war, where my dad lived a little bit later when they came back after the war, where my mother went to school, and near the place on the corner where my parents, my grandparents and half the family were married. When I walked to my ballet classes, I would pass all these places. I had to acknowledge them and understand they’re part of me. I think for a lot of us living in North America, we tend to forget our roots. We tend not to know our stories.
