Invisible Boy: A Memoir of Self-Discovery by Harrison Mooney

challenging reflective sad medium-paced
This book was very eye opening to a reality I do not know and understand, not being racialized or adopted. But it is an important read, no mater what. This story heavily focuses on Mooney' childhood and the ignorance and white supremacy he was subject to at the extent of adoption. While touched on ever so briefly, It would have been nice to see more of "today" and how shaped him. The stories Mooney shares of his childhood are raw and full of thought and emotion, showing just how much he grew through it. Definitely felt a tangible and accessible perspective on the significant, systemic, individual impacts of micro-aggressions, gaslighting, cocolonization and white supremacy.
