“Moon River” is one of my favorite songs. Along with “My Funny Valentine,” it’s a song that I sorta collect versions of by different vocalists.
This is Irma, singing this Johnny Mercer classic, and I think I’m in love.

My student—the child of Jamaican immigrants—is looking for fiction or non-fiction about intra-racial relations within the black diaspora here in the US
anything about friendship and/or antagonism between “native born” folks and “second-gen” folks who’s parents migrated to the US
Recommendations?
