Obama (1995) rhetorically juxtaposes "the mixed blood, the divided soul, the ghostly image of the tragic mulatto trapped between two worlds" (xv) with the search for "a workable meaning for his life as a Black American" (xvi). Later, he remarks, "the legend was made of Hawaii as the one true melting pot, an experiment in racial harmony"-but he was then "too young to know I needed a race" (Obama 1995:24, 27).
