Description
"A young woman descended from Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings driven from her neighborhood by a white militia. A university professor studying racism by conducting a secret social experiment on his own son. A single mother desperate to buy her first home even as the world hurtles toward catastrophe. Each fighting to survive in America ... In the novella 'My Monticello, ' a diverse group of Charlottesville neighbors flee violent white supremacists and seek refuge in Jefferson's historic plantation home as they attempt to outlive a long-foretold racial and environmental unraveling. In 'Control Negro, ' a Black professor clinically observes his son from birth through young adulthood, comparing him to a group of average ACMs (American Caucasian males). In each story, Johnson reveals intimate moments within the nation's multitudes, whether in the form of a Nigerian widower who immigrates to the States only to find himself adrift and estranged--even from his children-or a multiracial woman who adopts a new tongue and name, hoping to escape her rural roots."--,Provided by publisher.
