A lot of people have made up their minds about Rachel Doležal. But none of them know her real story. In June 2015, the media "outed" Rachel Doležal as a white woman who had knowingly been "passing" as Black. When asked if she were African American during an interview about the hate crimes directed at her and her family, she hesitated before ending the interview and walking away. Some interpreted her reluctance to respond and hasty departure as dishonesty, while others assumed she lacked a reasonable explanation for the almost unprecedented way she identified herself. What determines your race? Is it your DNA? The community in which you were raised? The way others see you or the way you see yourself? With In Full Color, Rachel Doležal describes the path that led her from being a child of white evangelical parents to an NAACP chapter president and respected educator and activist who identifies as Black. Along the way, she recounts the deep emotional bond she formed with her four adopted Black siblings, the sense of belonging she felt while living in Black communities in Jackson, Mississippi, and Washington, DC, and the experiences that have shaped her along the way. Her story is nuanced and complex, and in the process of telling it, she forces us to consider race in an entirely new light—not as a biological imperative, but as a function of the experiences we have, the culture we embrace, and, ultimately, the identity we choose.

A note from Jennifer:My first career was in the theater. Not a particularly practical choice, but I loved it. All around me were people who were passionate about what they were doing, using their talents and energy to create something of value.When I left the theater, I perhaps naively was surprised to see a profound difference as I spent time in various organizations. In my role as a communications consultant, I worked with clients in health care, insurance, banking, retail, manufacturing, food service, and other industries. Wherever I went, I couldn't help noticing that people seemed to be caught up in a gray daily grind. They were not thriving, they were not fully-engaged -- in many cases they were not even sure they were in the right jobs. I was struck by the grayness. That was the beginning of my search for full color living.Since then, I have worked as a career counselor and organization development consultant. I have continued looking for the secrets of full color living -- why some of us fully embody our lives, while others are dragging themselves through each gray day. Over 20 years of reading, training and experience, plus interviews with people who are living fully self-expressive lives, have brought me to this book. Full Color Living is for anyone who is ready to move beyond merely surviving, toward a more honest, healthy, satisfying and joyful “full color” life. –Jennifer Joy Walker, M.A.
