'All That She Carried' tells the story of generations of Black women and the love that binds them...

A simple cotton sack is the subject of a book that's a finalist for the National Book Award.

The “moving and mysterious” object captivated author and historian Tiya Miles, who combed through records and wrote "All That She Carried: The Journey of Ashley's Sack, a Black Family Keepsake."

A few lines stitched on the bag weave together three women, their lives, their generations, their love and their loss.
