About the book
The four works presented in this book are about freedom: breaking free, staying free, and helping others to freedom. A college student travels south to do her part in making Dr. King's dream of freedom for everyone a reality; a mother struggles for over two decades to free her blind son from bondage; a white man finds himself entrapped in the racial laws of the nation's One-Drop Theory; a high school drop-out tries to break free from negative family forces to pursue her dream of being a dancer.
The familiar characters may make you laugh, but they may also make you cry; the questions raised may provoke, but they may also stir your imaginations and challenge long-held views. Hopefully, they will leave all of us with a broader understanding of our predicament and of ways in which we may address it.
