A LOT LIKE YOU  

Seattle based Filmmaker Eli Kimaro is the daughter of a Tanzanian father and a Korean mother.  When her father retires in Tanzania to re-establish ties to his native Chagga tribe, Kimaro, who felt she never developed a strong kinship with the African side of her family, decides to follow him and document his life journey.

by author
Rosalind Kilkenny McLymont

Middle Ground heralds a new genre in African  American fiction--the Diasporan novel, where the plot, principal characters and relationships between these characters are shaped by the multi-cultural, multi-ethnic nature of the new Black America."
