Today I am : 10 stories of belonging / edited by Jael Richardson ; cover and illustrations by Salini Perera.

Summary:

"In this collection of short fiction, ten outstanding authors explore the theme of home - home as a place, a concept, as a way of thinking about the body - through prose, verse and graphic storytelling. In "In a Flash" by Marty Chan, three kids come across a camera that traps the people it photographs. But can they figure out how to get out? When a lady from church comes to visit bringing "gifts," Hunter sees his home on the rez in a new light in "Home Fires" by Michael Hutchinson. In "The Secret Cousin" by Chad Lucas, Lonnie is spending Thanksgiving with his mother's family, who he hardly knows. Lonnie navigates the tension and discomfort of being one of two Black people in the house. But he finds new friendship in his cousin Ethan. These stories and more, compiled and edited by Jael Richardson, acclaimed author and Artistic Director of the Festival of Literary Diversity, bring together perspectives on belonging from BIPOC authors from across the country."-- Provided by publisher.
