Immigrantly

A Daughter 's Search for Truth


Listen Later

In this powerful conversation, journalist and author Karin Jensen takes

us inside the real-life story behind her memoir The Strength of Water. Her mother’s life stretched from a Chinese laundry in 1920s Detroit to a village in wartime China, to navigating racism, domestic work, and reinvention in mid-century America. Karin shares how she pieced together silences, uncovered buried memories, and learned to hold complexity, contradiction, and compassion all at once.

If you’ve ever wondered what your parents carried so you could stand where you stand, this one will stay with you long after you listen.
