A White Duck in a Black Pond: Race, Identity, and Privilege
A White Duck in a Black Pond: Race, Identity, and Privilege
"This memoir is a valuable contribution to conversations on race and identity, and I would highly recommend it to educators and readers of memoirs who appreciate truth told with vulnerability and strength." - Independent Book Review
"This is a well-crafted memoir with resonant themes, superb writing, and spot-on social commentary." - Readers' Favorite
"A thoughtful and deeply personal exploration of race in postwar America." - Kirkus Reviews
"A White Duck in a Black Pond: Race, Identity, and Privilege by Dane Wycoff is a poignant memoir that will have readers eagerly turning the pages." - Feathered Quill
A White Duck in a Black Pond is a compelling memoir as engrossing, relevant, and timely today as decades ago. Being the son of a White mother and an African American father during the 1950s presented challenges on its own, but the bane of Dane Wycoff's existence wasn't that he was mixed; it was because he believed himself one hundred percent Black despite his white skin. His chosen identity led to an endless wave of rejection, violence, and torment. Dane was a Black boy somatically entrapped in white pigmentation, rejected by Black and White peers alike.
