The Pigment Of Your Imagination
Mixed Race In A Global Society
BY JOY M. ZAREMBKA
Brief Description:
Throughout the world arbitrary racial notions are used to define who is '"black" and who is "white" but the lines become blurred with people of mixed racial heritage. Friend Joy Zarembka and her brother Tommy -- who are featured on the front cover of the book -- share the same parents and have striking physical similarities, yet were labelled at birth with very different racial designations; Joy was described as "black" and her brother as "white." After extensive research in Britain, Kenya, Zimbabwe and Jamaica, Joy Zarembka explores the vastly divergent interpretations of racial identity. Zarembka leads us to a new understanding of racial identity.
