Synopsis -- How does a black woman maintain her sense of self, when most of her friends are white? Essayist Dawn Downey struggles to find balance between personal relationships and personal integrity. In the process, she unconsciously takes on characteristics of the privileged. But after a photo of a racist toy shows up in her social media feed, she discovers her black power.
