Bobby has high hopes for his new life in Detroit, and he will not, under any circumstances, blow his chances by messing up a prime job opportunity at his uncle's construction company. But his first meeting with his mentor, African American foreman Jimbo, turns out even worse than expected when it becomes apparent that Bobby is learning the ropes to become Jimbo's boss. As Bobby tries to navigate Jimbo's understandable resentment, he must also wrestle with the misperceptions of Black culture that his Caucasian family has passed on to him. Eventually, the two men become friends as Jimbo recognizes that Bobby doesn't hold the prejudices of his uncle. But just as things start to smooth out, Jimbo introduces Bobby to the kind, clever, and stunning Karen-Jimbo's favorite woman to string along. Confused by his strong feelings for this intriguing woman and frustrated with Jimbo's flippant treatment of her, Bobby struggles with whether to pursue Karen...at the cost of ending his newfound friendship with Jimbo and sabotaging his future. Taking a candid look at interracial romance and the human experience, ...But My Soul is Black reveals the cultural misperceptions that harm us-and the love that heals us.
