A funny, revealing, and powerful new memoir from comedian, author, and
actress Sarah Cooper
As a Jamaican immigrant, Sarah believed the key to success was being as
"American" as possible. So she became as American as possible, like any
hardworking Jamaican would. She found a job at Google, got married, and
planned to have kids and forget her dreams. But luckily none of that
worked out, which she celebrates in a piece for the book called "Thank
God for My Broken Uterus."
Now, in her hilarious debut memoir, Sarah describes how assimilating
made her feel lost, but when she risked looking foolish, it led to
finding herself. From her brave fifth-grade coming out story, "Mama?
Papa? I Think I'm Black," to her struggles with "The Immigrant to Basic
Bitch Pipeline" to how her life changed after playing the ultimate fool
in those comical lip-synching videos of Donald Trump, Cooper's first
memoir shows you that sometimes looking foolish is the smartest thing
you can do.
