As Gray As Black & White

By: Knight, Faith

In 1960s Alabama, a family secret shatters Mark Lawson's world. Blonde-haired and blue-eyed, 14-year-old Mark discovers he is black, a revelation that changes everything.

Kicked out of his segregated school and threatened on his baseball team, Mark must navigate a society where prejudice and race define your fate.

This revelation also adversely affects his recent friendship with Eddie, his black teammate, who he now sees as a threat to his future.

As Mark grapples with his new reality, he faces a crucial choice: embrace his newfound identity or strive to bridge the racial divide. His journey offers a poignant story of self-discovery, courage, and the enduring quest for equality in a divided world.
