Description
"A sharp, hilarious memoir about a nontraditional upbringing and growing up Black in a predominantly white community"--,Provided by publisher.
Description
Abandoned at ten by a mother who chose her drug-addicted, abusive boyfriend, Henderson was raised by grandparents. She grew up Black, weird, and overwhelmingly uncool in a predominantly white town in upstate New York, which created its own identity crises. Here she shares how she found the strength and smarts to save herself, as her grandmother gifted her a faith in her own capabilities that the world would not have most Black girls possess. -- adapted from jacket
