A lot is happening to Me. Will Me survive?
Sahara is a student at one of the most elite universities in America â and she is Not Okay. Her grades are subpar, sheâs not Nigerian enough for her family, and her long-term Life Partner* is threatening to take over. When sheâs not contemplating killing herself or the wealthy white students around her, sheâs receiving an increasing number of âUnfortunate Newsâ emails, which inform her that the few Black classmates she has are disappearing.
Will Sahara end up joining the ranks of âThe Unfortunatesâ, or can she avoid becoming yet another statistic?
