White Boy

White Boy is one man's unvarnished story of love, loss, race, Memphis,
and a dark past. Everything is laid bare when Memphis author,
journalist, and university professor Tom Graves takes a vivid and
deeply introspective account of his life.

Certainly no one can accuse Graves of looking back through
rose-colored glasses as chapter after riveting chapter he confronts
his family's racist past, shares his eye-witness memories of the
integration of Memphis public schools, details his dating escapades
with women from another race, and brings you to tears with his
powerful account of the roller-coaster relationship with a Sierra
Leone native whom he met on Match.com and brought to the U.S. to
become his bride.

This courageous and unforgettable memoir is sure to stir—and perhaps
even prompt you to reconsider—your own feelings about love and race.
