Your sense of self when you’re young is tied to who you belong to and where you live. Morgan is Black and Pentecostal. She's the daughter of Sybil and Jon. She's their only child and has her father’s eyes. She’s from New Jersey! Her nickname — the milkman's baby — is a joke about her fairer skin.

But as Morgan gets older, she realizes she actually doesn't know much about her family's history. This is a story of finding your roots, your ancestors and a new sense of self.
