The debut title from Hackney's Peninsula Press and it's a total knockout. Via the seemingly unlikely pairing of Barack Obama and Keanu Reeves, Harris' essay explores the forms of heroism embodied by both figures as a means of examining and embracing mixed-race masculine identity. The political and theoretical are seamlessly interwoven with examinations of popular culture and Harris' personal history and experiences to become an intimate and profound meditation on identity and the ways in which it can be reconfigured as a form of resistance.
