Book Description

Unapologetic and resilient, these women challenge monolithic assumptions of black identity. A TSA agent who has never flown, a girl braving new worlds to play piano, a teacher caught up in a mayoral race. In this debut collection of stories, each of them navigates life’s ‘training school’ – with its lessons on gentrification and respectability – while fighting to create a vibrant sense of self in this complicated love letter to Washington, DC.
