In "Blood Lies: Race Trait(or)," Karla Brundage offers a thought-provoking journey through the intricate nuances of race, particularly the various facets of Blackness. This collection asks at what point does this mathematical inquiry become traitorous? She takes readers on an exploration of ancestry, unraveling the complex history behind terms like "mulatto," "octoroon," and "quadroon," while also delving into Brundage's personal experiences as a 21st-century woman.With rich, at times brutally honest, lyricism and clever wordplay, Brundage examines the multifaceted nature of race, viewing it through the lenses of history, culture, sexuality, and politics. By the book's conclusion, "Blood Lies" challenges the conventional notion of race, illustrating that it's not simply a matter of bloodlines but a global phenomenon that encompasses the diverse dimensions of blackness, whiteness, and womanness.
