About the author

Jenna lives with her husband and four children in Omaha, Nebraska. Whenever she has a spare moment, she can be found enjoying a book (she carries one with her everywhere she goes). The only thing she loves more than reading is traveling. She believes that leaving the comfort zone of one’s own community is one of the greatest ways to build empathy for other people.

About the book

If Jenn had known her husband's family before they married, there might never have been a wedding.

Instead, she must face the painful reality that her new family holds ignorant—and at times racist—views that reopen the trauma of growing up Black in America. As she struggles to speak out, she must also confront her husband's silence.

In this powerful memoir, Jenn reckons with her past, supports her husband's journey toward racial awareness, and finds the courage to advocate for herself and others.

Both heartbreaking and hopeful, this book is for anyone who has experienced being othered—or who seeks to better understand and bridge differences. It challenges readers to confront bias and pursue genuine reconciliation.

We look forward to seeing you at The Book Nook Papillion on Sunday from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM!
