The Great Migration: a massive movement where African American families, including my own, ventured across state lines in search of new opportunities. This journey wasn't just geographical; it involved crossing the deeply entrenched color lines of American society. Through the lens of my family's experiences, this video uncovers how they navigated a nation divided by race, confronting and challenging the racial barriers of their time.

Come join me on a new docu-series that explores identity, racial tensions in the South during the 20th century, and the unique experiences of those who historically called Louisiana home.
My name is Danielle Romero, and all my life, I have romanticized Louisiana.
Growing up in New York, it represented a place where I could step back the sepia-toned life of my great grandmother, Lola Perot, who died before I was born.
Now, it was time to go back to Louisiana--although I had no idea what the truth would be or what questions to ask---who was Lola really? Who were we?
