In this book, Christian Hanz Lozada explores the intersections of being born into a poor White family and an educated Brown one while growing up first in a predominantly Black neighborhood and then a White one. Lozada writes through a confessional lens that blends love and cruelty into a unique language. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThrough sometimes funny and regularly biting verse, the poet navigates the intricate terrain of being mixed-race in a world often defined by binaries. From disparate cornerstone experiences like the orphaning of White Grandma to babysitting Mixed Nephew, the poems in this collection offer readers a glimpse into the author's journey of holding the tension between two truths. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith each poem, Lozada invites readers to join him on a transformative odyssey from self-hatred to half-dislike, ultimately demonstrating that one's whole self need not be tolerable as long as they keep trying.
