I enjoyed the crosscurrents in this piece between black and white, and the way the specific images and ideas you include reference that...white snow, black/white racial divide, the black and white studies, your photos of your father (b&w?), and tying it all together, the 'roughness --visual, emotional, contextual.
Thank you! The revision process in transitioning these pieces from memoir to Substack has been very productive for me. I try to squeeze more juice out of them— or tighten the connections.

Your exploration of your father's life continues to fascinate me.
I hope you have a lovely break in August.
Thank you!!
