Synopsis
In *One-Sixteenth: My Journey To Racial Identity,* Randye Bullock opens up a deeply personal and thought-provoking exploration of race, identity, and belonging. Through a series of powerful short stories, Bullock weaves together the rich tapestry of her life—her family’s deep roots in Detroit, her pioneering career, and her struggle to reconcile a racial identity shaped by complex societal rules and personal discovery.
With honesty, grace, and insight, Bullock delves into the emotional challenges of growing up in a world that often demands clear definitions of who you are, while navigating the intricacies of being “One-Sixteenth”—a label that never quite fit. Her stories, at times heartwarming and at others heartbreaking, reveal the delicate balance between race, history, and self-worth.
*One-Sixteenth* is not just a memoir—it is an invitation to reflect on the labels we carry, the stories we inherit, and the identities we embrace. For anyone who has ever questioned where they belong, Bullock’s journey offers wisdom, resilience, and hope.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Randye Bullock, a proud native of Detroit, hails from a family deeply rooted in the city’s history. Her lineage traces back to her great-grandfather, who began his career as a hotel doorman in Washington, D.C., before transitioning to the railroad industry in Detroit in 1860. Another great-grandfather, originally from Washington, D.C., moved his wife and eleven children to Detroit in 1906, helping to pave the way for the family’s lasting legacy in the city. Bullock’s grandfather further cemented their presence as one of Detroit’s first Black mail carriers and the inaugural president of the Nacirema Club—a prominent Black social club named "American" spelled backwards, symbolizing a reclaiming of identity and pride.
