| Description: |
Connected through slavery, a Black woman and a White woman discover their past – and each other. What happens when a White woman, Phoebe, contacts a Black woman, Betty, saying she suspects they are connected through slavery? Revealed to be cousins, they commit to a path of reconciliation. In alternating chapters, each tells her dramatic story, from Betty’s experience as one of the first Black children to attend her desegregated school to Phoebe’s eventual question to Betty: “How do I begin to repair the harms?” Piercingly honest, the book includes a working reparations project that the women conceived together. Includes black and white photos. Larger than average print. *2023 UWF Reading Program: Social Action |
