Julie Lythcott-Haims — Real American: A Memoir

This author of the bestseller How to Raise an Adult shares her journey from self-loathing to self-love as a Black and biracial woman living in predominantly white spaces. She shows how discrimination can puncture a person’s inner life with a thousand sharp cuts. She also expresses the healing power of community in overcoming the hurtful isolation of being incessantly considered “the other.” Here is a meaningful and universal message that encourages listeners to look both inward and outward to effect real lasting change so they can be their most authentic and open-minded selves.
