reMembering Mulatta

What does it mean to belong everywhere and nowhere at once? reMembering Mulatta maps the terrain of a life lived in the in-between: neither fully this nor that, always translating, always negotiating who gets to claim her. Perceived as an insider more often than she feels like one, she meets the world with an openness that reveals both the privileges and paradoxes of belonging. With a willingness to look closely and the precision to name what she finds, she moves through memory, family, and the quiet violence of being asked to choose. Whether echoing tenderness, perplexity, or resilience, each poem emerges from her interwoven identities. This is a collection for anyone who has ever felt fragmented by other people's need to define them. Through luminous, deeply felt poems, she invites readers into a profoundly human way of being. There is no easy resolution here. Only the possibility of clarity, unapologetic embodiment, and holding every part of yourself at once.
