When Baynard Woods left his hometown of South Carolina as an adult, he thought he’d escaped the South’s legacy as well. But after a few experiences and an unexpected discovery about his family history, he realized just how deep the mythology of whiteness in his life really was. In his new memoir, Inheritance: An Autobiography of Whiteness, Woods reflects on how race impacted his life.
