Real American : a memoir / Julie Lythcott-Haims. by Lythcott-Haims, Julie, author. New York, New York : Henry Holt and Company, 2017 Description:  272 pages ; 22 cm Edition:  First edition. Contents:  It begins like this -- An American childhood -- Becoming the other -- Desperate to belong -- Self-loathing -- Emerging -- Declaring -- Black lives matter -- Onward. Summary:  "Bringing a poetic sensibility to her prose to stunning effect, Lythcott-Haims briskly and stirringly evokes her personal battle with the low self-esteem that American racism routinely inflicts on people of color. The only child of a marriage between an African American father and a white British mother, she shows indelibly how so-called microaggressions, in addition to blunt-force insults, can puncture a person's inner life with a thousand sharp cuts. Real American expresses also, through Lythcott-Haims's path to self-acceptance, the healing power of community in overcoming the hurtful isolation of being incessantly considered "the other." -- From Book jacket.
