It is difficult to be different in the South in 1959, especially for Nashville native, Grace Roberts. But the challenges of this difference are worth it when she sees in her daughter's eyes, "...the enlightenment of an idea grasped, that something has been planted in this young and fertile soil. Beyond the blue irisis, and the room's reflected light, the beginning of understanding is wheedling its way through. It is the most a mother can hope for, that the truly important seeds of her wisdom will take root and grow, and foster in a hungry world, the sweet fruit of compassion and altruistic love."
