“In this intricate blend of personal history, poignant love story, and incisive social critique, Adam Gussow charts a path out of America’s stifling racial trap. My Family and I is a rousing invitation to see ourselves in one another and to summon the courage finally to forge the beloved community Dr. King envisioned— one sustained by hope, reciprocity, and the boundless possibility of our shared humanity. A must-read at a political moment when the colorblind ideal has been being so cynically exploited.”
