Not So Black and White

At the age of 11, Alexis Wilson is abandoned by her biological mother and about to enter a journey with her father and his male lover that would reveal to her the true power of love. In this remarkable memoir, Alexis reveals her mother’s secret, growing up with same sex parents, her bi-racial heritage, and her life growing up in and around the Broadway and Ballet world. Her memoir crescendos to a powerful close as she’s left with the prospect of two “parents” stricken with AIDS. She confronts the challenge with courage and leaves the reader filled with the infinite possibilities of the human spirit.
