About this listen
Through an examination of queerness, race, and the power that they play within the lives of a Southern Black family, Jennifer Neal's Notes On Her Color is an inventive and vibrant story as mother and daughter share the ability to change the color of their skin. Gabrielle and her mother have a uniquely close relationship, but the opposite is true with her temperamental father. The patriarch's only desire is that their skin must remain white at all times while in his presence.
Neal talks about reaching into satirical storylines and historical moments (that feel satirical) that became the inspirational foundation of her debut novel. She also talks about her hope that her work adds to the many stories of queer narratives in spaces that seek to erase them.
