The documentary series "Finding Lola" is done, but is the journey over?
I sat down with my cousin Casey Carr Perot, who I just met in person for the first time! We discuss the family member's experiences, the hurt from losing family connections and history to white passing, and the incredible way that doing ancestry work can bring about generational healing in a family. We're still learning about our Louisiana Creole side, but things are changing for the better.

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 sepiatoned life of my great grandmother, Lola Perot, who died before I was born.
Now, it was time to go back to Louisianaalthough I had no idea what the truth would be or what questions to askwho was Lola really? Who were we?
