Check out Michelle Maltais of Twisted Curl blog and the vivacious host of one of our luncheon panel's at the Mixed Roots Film & Literary Festival last year. She' written a wonderful essay for the LA Times about her experience in D.C. for President Obama's inauguration. The line that resonates with me:
"I have known that, as the biracial child of a black Jamaican and a white American, I have been an American with an asterisk."
