Answer:“It’s not like I never thought about being mixed race. I guess it was just that, in Brooklyn, everyone was competing to be exotic or surprising. By comparison, I was boring, seriously. Really boring.”
Culture shock knocks city girl Agnes “Nes” Murphy-Pujols off-kilter when she’s transplanted mid–senior year from Brooklyn to a small Southern town after her mother’s relationship with a coworker self-destructs. On top of the move, Nes is nursing a broken heart and severe homesickness, so her plan is simple: keep her head down, graduate and get out. Too bad that flies out the window on day one, when she opens her smart mouth and pits herself against the school’s reigning belle and the principal.
Her rebellious streak attracts the attention of local golden boy Doyle Rahn, who teaches Nes the ropes at Ebenezer. As her friendship with Doyle sizzles into something more, Nes discovers the town she’s learning to like has an insidious undercurrent of racism. The color of her skin was never something she thought about in Brooklyn, but after a frightening traffic stop on an isolated road, Nes starts to see signs everywhere—including at her own high school where, she learns, they hold proms. Two of them. One black, one white.
Nes and Doyle band together with a ragtag team of classmates to plan an alternate prom. But when a lit cross is left burning in Nes’s yard, the alterna-prommers realize that bucking tradition comes at a price. Maybe, though, that makes taking a stand more important than anything.

Dear Mayor Levine,
We send our children to school so that they can learn the
skills that they need to prepare them for the challenges of life. In order to make this possible, we want them
to learn in an environment that is safe and secure. We truly believe that this
encourages them to learn and take part in school activities.
Lately, however, we are now troubled by reports that there
many unruly students who cause trouble for the school and other students as
well. What is more alarming is that many
of them are carrying concealed weapons and we are afraid that our children’s
lives will be at risk.
We urgently request
that your office to do something about this problem. We are worried about the
safety and welfare of our children is now at risk because of these recent
developments. We will be happy to work
with you in creating a safe in environment for our children to learn in school.
Thank you and God Bless!
Very Truly Yours,
John Doe
