As a southern Black woman who came of age with the internet, Nichole Perkins often parses her lived experiences through the lens of pop culture. In her essay collection, she reflects on the ways the cultural zeitgeist has shaped her sexuality, femininity, and Blackness. With candor and wit, Perkins ponders the moments society fails Black women and finds practices of self-care to begin to heal.
