About
People have always mistaken Kitt for other Black women. (“You look just like my neighbor/cousin/co-worker …”) Now she’s trying to make it a business, standing in for Black women at those annoying in-person moments they’d pay good money to avoid. But when people start objecting to her service, including her new business partner, Kitt realizes it isn’t just a party trick. It’s about power – for her clients and herself. And the slyest trick of all is keeping some.
