This week on Militantly Mixed I’m joined by the brilliant Alison Hart, an OG Mixed Cousin who first appeared on Episode 24 back in 2018 with the release of her debut novel, Mostly White. Alison returns to share her stunning new novel, The In-between Sky, and we dive into creativity, identity, and what it means to write from a Mixed-race perspective.Talking with Alison felt like catching up with family because that’s exactly what it was. We reflected on the years between our first conversation, the evolution of her craft, and the power of storytelling from that “in-between” place so many of us know well.Grab the Book • Bookshop (supports indie stores + my affiliate page): https://bookshop.org/a/56052/9781963221053 • Amazon: https://amzn.to/3XgnR1jSupport a Native & Queer Bookshop!
