Race Against Time (Paperback)

Who started the Riots? What is Racism? What is Reverse Racism? Is there a bridge to connect the two groups, or are we stuck in Limbo? This YA level book shows real lessons done within the classroom's walls that may have prevented some of the spread of intolerance on campus and into local neighborhoods. This middle or high school level book explores issues of desegregation in a southern town in Florida in the early 1970s through its impact in 2008. Meanwhile, most of the characters' names have been changed because the writer just plain forgot the high school peers' real names. Plus, as a storyteller, the novelist wanted to preserve the students' autonomies and personal lives. That is why the story is formatted as a fictional novella rather than a standard history book. This book uses some poetic license but the objectives include poetic justice.
