Marjorie and Todd sit down with a local author, John Vercher, to discuss his book, his path to becoming an author, and his experiences as a bi-racial black man.  John also shares why the question, "What are you?" can be so hurtful and exhausting.  This is the first of two conversations that the three of them had, but we recommend that you listen to it after Episode 4.  It will all make sense if you have both courses!
