Tracie's book is an autobiography that is told from her perspective, a "brownish" local girl, born and raised in Hawaii. The words "Tita " describes a girl who is born and raised in the islands and is an expression of warm regard toward a female of the islands. It is a reflective and informational book filled with life stories and examples of race, racism, prejudice, and injustice. It is a heart-warming account of her life to give you an understanding of the Hawaiian culture and race that you may never have experienced before. It is meant to inspire you and encourage you to live your best life and to seek to correct injustices of the past and prevent injustices to happen in the future through action and awareness. Aloha, Tracie
