Wiggins, James Outliving the White Lie

Last updated:

VICKSBURG, MS.Lorelei Books will host an autograph signing for James Wiggins this evening from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. The author will be signing copies of his new book: Outliving the White Lie.

Part history, part memoir, Outliving the White Lie: A Southerner’s Historical, Genealogical, and Personal Journey charts conflicting narratives of American and southern identity through a blend of public, family, and deeply personal history. Author James Wiggins, who was raised in rural Mississippi, pairs thorough historical research with his own lived experiences. Outliving the White Lie looks squarely at the many untruths regarding the history and legacy of race that have proliferated among white Americans, from the misrepresentations of Black Confederates to the myth of a “postracial” America.

This event is free and open to the public.
