| 520 | |a In 1971 a white, Jewish, former ballerina, chose to have a child with the famous Black jazz musician Roy Ayers, fully expecting and agreeing that he would not be involved in the child's life. Their son, Nabil Ayers, recounts a life spent living with the aftermath of that decision, and his journey to build an identity of his own despite and in spite of his father's absence. Despite meeting his father only a handful of times, Roy's influence showed itself in Nabil's instinctual love of music, and later, in the music industry, Nabil's chosen career path. Here Nabil Ayers examines how he made meaningful connections with extended family he never knew existed. -- adapted from jacket | ||
