Sobre este título
A White Duck in a Black Pond is a compelling memoir as engrossing, relevant, and timely today as decades ago. Being the son of a White mother and an African American father during the 1950s presented challenges on its own, but the bane of Dane Wycoff's existence wasn’t that he was mixed; it was because he believed himself one hundred percent Black despite his white skin. His chosen identity led to an endless wave of rejection, violence, and torment. Dane was a Black boy somatically entrapped in white pigmentation, rejected by Black and White peers alike.
