About this product

Product Information

Mishna Wolff grew up in a poor black neighborhood with her single father, a white man who truly believed he was black. "He strutted around with a short perm, a Cosby-esque sweater, gold chains and a Kangol-telling jokes like Redd Fox, and giving advice like Jesse Jackson. You couldn't tell my father he was white. Believe me, I tried," writes Wolff. And so from early childhood on, her father began his crusade to make his white daughter down. Unfortunately, Mishna didn't quite fit in with the neighborhood kids: she couldn't dance, she couldn't sing, she couldn't double dutch, and she was the worst player on her all-black basketball team. She was shy, uncool, and painfully white. And yet when she was suddenly sent to a rich white school, she found she was too "black" to fit in with her white classmates. I'm Down is a hip, hysterical, and at the same time beautiful memoir that will have you howling with laughter, recommending it to friends and questioning what it means to be black and white in America.

    I am so happy with my book!!! It was described only as 'Good', but considering that this treasure of a book is from 1984, I definitely consider it as 'Very Good'! The book was shipped in a timely manner, and was packaged with care. It arrived in a bubble mailer, and inside, the book was protected in a thin plastic envelope to protect it from rain. The pictures shown of the book were accurate. I would trust buying from this seller again. Thank you seller! A++++

    I’m was very pleased with the communication and care that the seller provided with the packaging. The vintage LIFE magazine was exactly as described. For the price, it was perfect. The shipping was good also. The seller made sure to package the magazine well so that it did t get damaged and communication was fantastic. Like I said I’m very pleased. 👍🏻
