What We Lose

Thandi is a black woman, but people mistake her for Asian or Hispanic. She is American, but doesn’t feel as American as her friends. She is South African, but doesn’t feel that she belongs there either. And her mother is dying. This is how it feels to be an outsider caught between being black and white, American and not.
