Book Description
A lot of people have made up their minds about Rachel Doležal. But none of them know her real story. In June 2015, the media "outed" Rachel Doležal as a white woman who had knowingly been "passing" as Black. When asked if she were African American during an interview about the hate crimes directed at her and her family, she hesitated before ending the interview and walking away. Some interpreted her reluctance to respond and hasty departure as dishonesty, while others assumed she lacked a reasonable explanation for the almost unprecedented way she identified herself. What determines your race? Is it your DNA? The community in which you were raised? The way others see you or the way you see yourself? With In Full Color, Rachel Doležal describes the path that led her from being a child of white evangelical parents to an NAACP chapter president and respected educator and activist who identifies as Black. Along the way, she recounts the deep emotional bond she formed with her four adopted Black siblings, the sense of belonging she felt while living in Black communities in Jackson, Mississippi, and Washington, DC, and the experiences that have shaped her along the way. Her story is nuanced and complex, and in the process of telling it, she forces us to consider race in an entirely new light—not as a biological imperative, but as a function of the experiences we have, the culture we embrace, and, ultimately, the identity we choose.

Book Description
A note from Jennifer:My first career was in the theater. Not a particularly practical choice, but I loved it. All around me were people who were passionate about what they were doing, using their talents and energy to create something of value.When I left the theater, I perhaps naively was surprised to see a profound difference as I spent time in various organizations. In my role as a communications consultant, I worked with clients in health care, insurance, banking, retail, manufacturing, food service, and other industries. Wherever I went, I couldn't help noticing that people seemed to be caught up in a gray daily grind. They were not thriving, they were not fully-engaged -- in many cases they were not even sure they were in the right jobs. I was struck by the grayness. That was the beginning of my search for full color living.Since then, I have worked as a career counselor and organization development consultant. I have continued looking for the secrets of full color living -- why some of us fully embody our lives, while others are dragging themselves through each gray day. Over 20 years of reading, training and experience, plus interviews with people who are living fully self-expressive lives, have brought me to this book. Full Color Living is for anyone who is ready to move beyond merely surviving, toward a more honest, healthy, satisfying and joyful “full color” life. –Jennifer Joy Walker, M.A.

Book Description
“A novelistic mosaic that simultaneously reads like a thriller and like a strange, dreamlike excursion into the subconscious.” —The New York Times Years ago, when House of Leaves was first being passed around, it was nothing more than a badly bundled heap of paper, parts of which would occasionally surface on the Internet. No one could have anticipated the small but devoted following this terrifying story would soon command. Starting with an odd assortment of marginalized youth -- musicians, tattoo artists, programmers, strippers, environmentalists, and adrenaline junkies -- the book eventually made its way into the hands of older generations, who not only found themselves in those strangely arranged pages but also discovered a way back into the lives of their estranged children. Now this astonishing novel is made available in book form, complete with the original colored words, vertical footnotes, and second and third appendices. The story remains unchanged, focusing on a young family that moves into a small home on Ash Tree Lane where they discover something is terribly wrong: their house is bigger on the inside than it is on the outside. Of course, neither Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist Will Navidson nor his companion Karen Green was prepared to face the consequences of that impossibility, until the day their two little children wandered off and their voices eerily began to return another story -- of creature darkness, of an ever-growing abyss behind a closet door, and of that unholy growl which soon enough would tear through their walls and consume all their dreams.
