Veteran journalist and human rights activist Goldie Taylor says when she became a journalist more than 30 years ago, she always wanted to talk about issues that she lived.

Taylor said over the years, she talked about her family’s personal story but there was one that she hadn’t talked about until now.

In her new book, “The Love You Save: A Memoir,” Taylor writes about growing up in Saint Louis and experiencing the death and grief of her father, rape and suicide idealization.
