review: Editorial Reviews Review "Black, White, Other is an example of how we can talk about race with feeling, humor, and dignity." - The New York Times "No book is more likely to force a reader to confront his beliefs about race than this one." - The Buffalo News "Funderburg lets her subjects ask-and answer-the controversial, touchy questions that many wonder but few dare to pose." - Indianapolis Star About the Author Lise Funderburg's groundbreaking oral history, Black, White, Other: Biracial Americans Talk About Race and Identity, was first published in 1994 and has been widely used in the study of race and racial identity. The New York Times praised it for showing us how to talk about race with feeling, humor, and dignity. Black, White, Other was recently released in a 20th anniversary ebook edition, with a foreword by novelist Mat Johnson. Lise's memoir, Pig Candy: Taking My Father South, Taking My Father Home (Free Press), is a contemplation of life, death, race, and barbecue. Her latest book is Apple, Tree: Writers on Their Parents (University of Nebraska, 2019), a collection of all-new work by 25 writers, which Publishers Weekly deemed a sparkling anthology in its starred review. Lise's writing has appeared in many publications and she teaches creative nonfiction writing at The University of Pennsylvania and the Paris Writers' Workshop.
