Requests:  0 Summary:  "The unique and beautifully written story of one multiracial woman's journey of acceptance and identity that tackles the fraught topic of race in America. Sil Lai Abrams always knew she was different, with darker skin and curlier hair than her siblings. But when the man who she thought was her dad told her the truth--that her father was actually black--her whole world was turned upside down. Raised primarily in the Caucasian community of Winter Park, Florida, Abrams was forced to re-examine who she really was and struggle with her Caucasian, African American, and Chinese identities. In her remarkable memoir, she shares this journey and how it speaks to a larger question: Why does race matter? Black Lotus is a story of acceptance and identity but it is also a dialogue on the complex topic of race in this country by an award-winning writer and inspirational speaker"--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 305.80097 Abrams Ab Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.80097 Abrams Ab Checked In Add Copy to MyList Keaau P/S Library Adult Biography B 305.80097 Abrams Ab Checked In Add Copy to MyList Liliha Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.80097 Abrams Ab Checked In Add Copy to MyList Molokai Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.80097 Abrams Ab Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pearl City Public Library Adult Biography 305.80097 Abrams Ab missing from shelf Add Copy to MyList Waikiki-Kapahulu Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.80097 Ab Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waipahu Public Library Adult Nonfiction 305.80097 Abrams Ab Checked In Add Copy to MyList
