Goodreads Summary:
In 1959 Virginia, the lives of two girls on opposite sides of the battle for civil rights will be changed forever.
Sarah
Dunbar is one of the first black students to attend the previously
all-white Jefferson High School. An honors student at her old school,
she is put into remedial classes, spit on and tormented daily.
Linda
Hairston is the daughter of one of the town’s most vocal opponents of
school integration. She has been taught all her life that the races

school project, Sarah and Linda must confront harsh truths about race,
