The Deep South of the 60s was a bigoted system of haves and have-nots. Racial lines between black and white Southerners were beginning to blur, with social issues being scrutinized more than ever. Tempers flared easily. Jerry Sanger, the son of a white ex-sharecropper, and Eloisa Jones, daughter of a black grocery store owner, suddenly find themselves in the middle of a racial battle. The discovery of their secret friendship and budding romance go against all things holy in Princeville, Mississippi. Meanwhile, Sanger's friends in the Coahoma Street Gang find social issues of the times a challenge. As they wrestle with a small-minded class structure, Princeville must come to terms with incest, murder, and secret homosexuality. How everyone deals with these issues will, no doubt, surprise you.

<p>Before I knew better, I tried to hide the very thing that gave me individuality and strength.  Today, I consider cerebral palsy a blessing, one that benefited my life in far more ways than it hurt.This award-winning book contains poems with narrative accompanying each poem revealing my life growing up and aging with Cerebral Palsy (CP).  Some aspects of my life were good; others were not.   Fortunately, there have been more good times than bad.   Many people have gone through similar times; I am not alone on my journey.If, by chance, you know one of the 500,000 or so Americans with CP, share the poems with them. They are the reason I wrote them, especially the young.  A lifelong disability does not have to be a lesser life.  I have lived a good life through middle age and look forward to many more happy years.   I wish for others a life as blessed as mine.</p>
