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. 600 10 $a Lythcott-Haims, Julie. 650 0 $a Racially mixed people $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Racially mixed people $x Race identity $z United States. 650 0 $a Racially mixed people $z United States $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a Race $x Social aspects $z United States. 651 0 $a United States $x Race relations. 651 0 $a New York (N.Y.) $v Biography. 651 0 $a Reston (Va.) $v Biography. 651 0 $a Palo Alto (Calif.) $v Biography. 651 0 $a Stanford (Calif.) $v Biography. 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 941 $a 10 952 $l BVPE851 $d 20220728013414.0 952 $l CEAX572 $d 20200508022635.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20200204090519.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110072409.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20181010012326.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006111607.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20180403020246.0 952 $l GAAX314 $d 20180118010114.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20171202011100.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20171011010133.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=776A5BE6AE4911E78040922A97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
