About this book

Rebecca Carroll traces her long path to understanding her own blackness, a self-initiated passage shaped by grief.

The memoir opens with a note from Felicia, a former student at the girls' school near Boston where Carroll taught, who calls her the first black teacher she ever had. It then turns to Carroll's childhood, beginning with a four-year-old making mud pies beside her friend Leah.

Surviving the White Gaze recounts her childhood as the only Black person in a rural New Hampshire town, adopted by white parents, and her later negotiation of a difficult relationship with her birth mother.
