The Blacker The Berry

Growing up, Emma Lou Morgan stuck out. Her skin was the darkest in every room, even within her own home. With the encouragement of her uncle, Emma Lou flees small-town Idaho firstly to study in Los Angeles before travelling to Harlem. Though she enjoys the glamour of attending the theatre and the buzz of cabaret, every excursion is tinged with the fear of discrimination. Even in big cities, Emma Lou cannot escape the bigotry of colourism; but can she change how it makes her feel about herself?
