Indian-American Mira Jacob is married to a white man and has a mixed race son...who has questions. Jacob is reminded of the questions and experience she had as she came of age, brown, in America, and the feelings she has about her about her parents-in-law being Trump supporters, i.e., racist.
Did I mention it's a graphic memoir? I love the paper dolls on photograph backgrounds style of it.
Lol this arranged marriage logic from Jacob's parents:
Jacob's book is smart, engaging, funny, and illuminating, even in its everyday-ness of a mom trying to explain the world to her young son.
