Tonight's Story

A white man with cerebral palsy who wears leg braces holds a children's book titled "Extraordinary Jordyn and Her Bionic Ears" while sitting on an ottoman stool in his daughter's bedroom at night. His daughter is a Black multiracial American girl with thick braided red hair adorned with two flower barrettes. She is tucked into bed and is wearing dark blue patterned pajamas and looks up at her father with a soft smile. The father's black forearm crutches lie on the foot of the bed. He has dark brown curly hair, short brown facial hair, and is wearing a light green sweater with pink shorts. He has a tattoo of the Roman numeral two followed by a slash and the number three. The child's room is painted light pink and includes a nightstand, lamp, a pair of slippers, curtains, and children's books. Her bedspread is white with blue, pink, and yellow polka dots. Framed illustrations of Black women hang on the wall.
