1. 1. The Waterbearers

   

   The Waterbearers follows Sasha Bonét’s exploration of Black motherhood across three generations—her grandmother in Louisiana, her mother in Texas, and her own experience raising a daughter in New York. Blending family memoir with historical and literary portraits of Black women, the book examines how love, labor, and trauma are inherited and considers ways to honor ancestral strength while breaking cycles of violence in parenting.
