fall black-and-white thinking
In some ways I consider myself more Chinese, because I live in San Francisco, which is becoming a predominantly Asian city. I avoid falling into the black-and-white dialectic in which most of America still seems trapped.

Having to think of myself in relationship to that horizon has liberated me from the black-and-white checkerboard. Richard Rodriguez

I said, “Are we outside?” He glanced round, as if needing to confirm this. “Nope.” “Then no.” I turned my attention back to the keg. Sarah Dessen
