Issa Rae: The Misadventures Of An Awkward Black Girl At The Rich Theatre!

Being an introvert in a world that glorifies cool isn't easy. But when Issa Rae, the creator of the Shorty Award-winning hit series The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl, is that introvert-whether she's navigating love, work, friendships, or "rapping"-it sure is entertaining. Now, in this debut collection of essays written in her witty and self-deprecating voice, Rae covers everything from cybersexing in the early days of the Internet to deflecting unsolicited comments on weight gain, from navigating the perils of eating out alone and public displays of affection to learning to accept yourself-natural hair and all. This event is free and open to the public, Charis will sell books, it takes place at the Rich Theatre at the Woodruff Arts Center at 1280 Peachtree St. NE.
