The book offers a meditation on the author’s upbringing in a mixed Black and Italian American family\, weaving together memoir\, archival research\, and personal reflection to examine the legacies of enslavement and racial discrimination in America. \nKiki Petrosino is the author of “White Blood: A Lyric of Virginia” (2020) and three other poetry collections. She holds graduate degrees from the University of Chicago and the University of Iowa Writer’s Workshop and currently teaches at the University of Virginia as a Professor of Poetry. \nA Q&A session\, book signing\, and reception will follow the reading. \nAll are welcome to attend!
