The Kidnappers' Boy

by Shane McCrae

📖 The Scoop

"The Kidnappers' Boy is Shane McCrae's memoir of being kidnapped from his Black father by his white grandparents, who refused to acknowledge that he was Black. As a boy, Shane was literally prevented from recognizing himself. As his self-awareness evolves, so too does his experience of being starkly out of place-in his family, his life, his reality. Shane's memoir is also a profound reflection of what it can mean to be black in this country, of the violence of black Americans not seeing themselves in culture and power and politics.

Genre: Biography & Autobiography / General (fancy, right?)
