America's history is often defined by the voices that recorded it, leaving many untold stories in the margins. 

Today, I challenge the conventional narratives and bring to light the essential contributions of women, Native Americans, African Americans, and immigrants whose stories have been overshadowed. 

I, Carmen Cauthen, invite you to explore these overlooked perspectives, sparking a necessary conversation about reshaping our historical understanding. We'll examine the biases present in traditional histories and recognize that every family's story is a vital piece of America's complex puzzle.

Embark with me on a transformative journey as I uncover my own heritage and its place within the tapestry of American history. This introspection has fueled my passion as a citizen and advocate, driving me to ensure that diverse voices are heard and honored. I'll address the significant gaps in educational representation and discuss how bringing these stories to the forefront empowers us all. As we connect through these narratives, we forge a path toward a more inclusive and truthful representation of our shared history. 

Join this empowering dialogue and be inspired to reconnect with your own roots.
