WHO TOLD YOU I WAS BLACK?

Who told you I was Black? More provocatively, who told you what Black was supposed to mean? Andre Ford uses his own experiences as a starting point for an inquiry into race, color, class, masculinity, desire, and the inherited categories through which people interpret one another. Moving between family history, military service, Europe, and southern Africa, he examines the gap between an identity we live and the meanings others insist on assigning to it.
