Nia, whose mother is black, decides that she wants to write the "Great African-American" novel, only to realize that she has completely lost touch with that side of her heritage. So, she quits her job and attempts to get in touch with her African-American heritage, causing a culture clash that teaches her more than a few things about being black in America.
