Offering brief snapshots into the author's experience growing up half black and half white, In Between My Bodies presents through screenplays, short answer questions, blog posts, and more. Uncomfortably relatable to some, an overreaction to others, In Between My Bodies interactively invites readers to examine the depth that just a few careless words, a symbol, or an expectation can hold.
