Description

After being adopted into a dysfunctional family as future farm labor and then growing up rejected by both blacks and whites, Daniel Cardwell made a stand to live alone at age fourteen. By the time he was thirty he had already impacted millions of lives around the globe through his work facilitating the building of cancer treatment centers in third world countries and administering cancer treatment in the U.S. and abroad. While attending college to further his education, Daniel stumbled upon his childhood picture in national magazines motivating him to unlock the secrets of his origin. A Question of Color details Daniel's upbringing, subsequent 25 year search for his birth mother and his choosing to be neither black or white - but to just be American.
