{"product_id":"2940170788514","title":"Mama's Child","description":"A stunning tale about the deeply entrenched conflicts between a white mother and her biracial daughter. Mama' s Child is story of an idealistic young white woman who travelled to the American South as a civil rights worker, fell in love with an African American man, and started a family in San Francisco, where the more liberal city embraced them-- except when it didn' t. They raise a son and daughter, but the tensions surrounding them have a negative impact on their marriage, and they divorce when their children are still young. For their biracial daughter, this split further destabilizes her already challenged sense of self--\" Am I black or white?\" she must ask herself, \" Where do I belong?\" Is she her father' s daughter alone? As the years pass, the chasm between them widens, even as the mother attempts to hold on to the emotional chord that binds them. It isn' t until the daughter, Ruby, herself becomes a wife and mother that she begins to develop compassion and understanding for the many ways that her own mother' s love transcended race and questions of identity.","brand":"Recorded Books, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47100718055664,"sku":"2940170788514","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940170788514_p0.jpg?v=1763717460","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940170788514","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
