Description

Book Synopsis

A story about the sound and silence of survival, and the rhythms that carry us home.

In Mixtape: A Memoir, therapist and storyteller Johnzelle Anderson weaves a raw, lyrical portrait of resilience, identity, and healing.

Born to a disengaged West African father and a volatile white mother, Anderson grows up mixed race in 1990s Roanoke, Virginia-feeling like an outsider in every room. Amid childhood abuse, neglect, and racism, he clings to the safety of his grandmother's love and his inner voice's promise of a better future.

Told in tracks rather than chapters, Mixtape charts Anderson's journey from trauma to triumph-from being body-shamed and silenced to building a career in mental health and forming a family of his own. Along the way, he confronts the legacy of generational pain, redefines his sense of belonging, and takes a life-changing trip to Ghana in search of the roots his father never shared.

Honest, at times humorous, and unflinching in its vulnerability, Mixtape: A Memoir is a coming-of-age story for anyone unlearning and daring to rewrite the soundtrack of their life.
