Audio produced by StoryCorps Studios in partnership with GBH Boston.
In this recording, brother and sister Dorothy and Ben Davis remember their youth as the children of foreign service workers. Born in Liberia and raised partially in Tunisia and New Jersey before settling in Washington, DC, Dorothy and Ben reflect upon their late exposure to desegregation in schools, which compounded their culture shock after years abroad.
Audio recorded virtually on June 6, 2023.
