Goodreads asked Dianne Liuzzi Hagan:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Dianne Liuzzi Hagan I knew after I published Another Day in Post-Racial America that the conversation about race in America was still just a conversation. We need systemic and institutional change, and racism will be present and affect people economically, socially, and sometimes fatally, until we make those changes. I also wanted to write about our relationship from the beginning, when we met freshman year of college in January 1976, and how my husband was received and treated by my family. But I also wanted to address what happened in my parents' generation, too, and how being a bi-ethnic family was difficult for my parents.
