X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Winner of the 2021 National Book Award in 
 nonfiction\, <em>All That She Carried</em> dives deeply into the history o
 f a single object: a cotton sack embroidered with a few deceptively simple
  lines.&nbsp\;&nbsp\;</p>\n<p style="text-align: center\;"><em>My great gr
 andmother Rose&nbsp\;</em></p>\n<p style="text-align: center\;"><em>mother
  of Ashley gave her this sack when&nbsp\;</em></p>\n<p style="text-align: 
 center\;"><em>she was sold at age 9 in South Carolina&nbsp\;</em></p>\n<p 
 style="text-align: center\;"><em>it held a tattered dress 3 handfulls of&n
 bsp\;</em></p>\n<p style="text-align: center\;"><em>pecans a braid of Rose
 s hair. Told her&nbsp\;</em></p>\n<p style="text-align: center\;"><em>It b
 e filled with my Love always&nbsp\;</em></p>\n<p style="text-align: center
 \;"><em>she never saw her again&nbsp\;</em></p>\n<p style="text-align: cen
 ter\;"><em>Ashley is my grandmother&nbsp\;</em></p>\n<p style="text-align:
  center\;"><em>Ruth Middleton&nbsp\;</em></p>\n<p style="text-align: cente
 r\;"><em>1921&nbsp\;</em></p>\n<p>From the sparse information contained in
  these carefully embroidered lines\, author Tiya Miles opens up the potent
 ial worlds of Ashley\, Ruth\, and Rose. Her analysis of the sack reveals w
 hat we can and can&rsquo\;t know about the past\, particularly of Black in
 dividuals who were brought here by force and enslaved.</p>\n<p>Program cop
