I am a middle-aged, multiracial, black woman, originally from NYC, now living in the South. It has taken my entire life to finally feel as if I have some understanding of race and culture in the US and my place in it.

I am an average person, with normal everyday things going on. My childhood was anything but normal. This series hits home, since my father is Bob, Martha's husband. It was something to see him on TV.

Twentysomething medical researcher, orig. from Michigan, now living in Seattle. African American male (although I prefer the term Black), who is experiencing some mild culture shock, due to the almost complete lack of community here. Also interested in the multicult/racial experience, given the high number of such relationships in the area, and the present of many in my immediate and extended family. 'Nuff said?
