MORE THAN I IMAGINED: WHAT A BLACK MAN DISCOVERED ABOUT THE WHITE MOTHER HE NEVER KNEW by John Blake

John Blake’s MORE THAN I IMAGINED:WHAT A BLACK MAN DISCOVERED ABOUT THE WHITE MOTHER HE NEVER KNEW has an apt title and the reader/listener is in for more than they can imagine as Blake takes on everything from his own prejudices to his grandfather’s ghost! Stirring descriptions of situations as he answers “where is my mother” and “where do I belong.” In candid reflections Blake examines his beliefs as a “closeted biracial person” with a determination to learn and grow even in difficult relationships. Blake reads his story with a mix of reporter’s detailing and emotions of one fully in his experiences.
