By April Sinclair
Get it on Amazon
Coffee Will Make You Black takes place during the Civil Rights Era in Chicago and follows high school student Jean Stevenson as she grapples with her sexual fluidity all while facing school bullies and religious pressure to conform to a more “normal” lifestyle. Given its time period, it certainly addresses issues of racism head on and shows protagonist Jean finding her sense-of-self and worth among internal and social obstacles that are almost too much for someone her age to bear.
