Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 49
Raised in sleepy English suburbia, Georgina Lawton was no stranger to homogeneity. Her parents were White; her friends were White; there was no reason for her to think she was any different. But over time her brown skin and dark, kinky hair frequently made her a target of prejudice. In Georgina’s insistently color-blind household, with no acknowledgement of her difference or access to Black culture, she lacked the coordinates to make sense of who she was.

I Feel Seen
Revisado: 09-21-21
I am so grateful for this book. I’m a busy, full-time working toddler mom and I still managed to devour this book in just two days. I didn’t want it to end. As a Black, biracial woman who grew up in a Black household and a white town, and who struggled (and struggles) with identity, and with race being a taboo topic within the family, I don’t know that I’ve ever felt more seen while reading a book. This book should be required reading for everyone, but especially for mixed race people, parents of kids of a difference race, adopters and adopted people, and those who have had their lives thrown into chaos by DNA testing. What a brave and beautiful story with unflinching truth and lots of light as well.
