Description
Adam and Farai are an interracial couple who have been together for two years. However, when Farai meets Adam's parents, she is met with a series of uncomfortable situations that leave her feeling ostracised. As the evening wears on, Adam tries to downplay Farai's concerns, failing to show understanding or empathy for her feelings. This lack of support puts further strain on their relationship and makes Farai question whether she can be with someone whose family does not accept her. This graphic novel explores important contemporary issues of race, bigotry, and the challenges faced by interracial couples.
