A biracial baby adopted into a middle-class Black family, Colnese struggles to know where she belongs. Growing up in South Minneapolis during the 1970s, Colnese searches for her birth mother, and herself, while navigating Minnesota's racial and cultural divide. Abusive men, drugs and alcohol, and her own violence and vindictiveness plague her life. Heartbreaking and inspiring in more ways than one, Colnese eventually finds her path to healing--a lifelong journey.Author, Colnese Hendon chronicles the difficulties she experienced in navigating Minnesota's racial and cultural divide during the 1960s and 1970s as a biracial adoptee, as well as her endeavors to discover her identity and to find a place where she truly belongs.
