An excerpt from The Black Body reads: "The book is about my life, and the people that were and are involved in it, including my parents. Since I'm a second-generation Italian (my parents are Liberian immigrants), I focus a lot on immigration. I was inspired by my political science studies, because my thesis was about the history of Liberia and Liberian refugees. So the research for my thesis turned into research on my parents, my history and my community."
