Jane Ellen Robbins Hammond, a black Southern female, comes of age during the turbulent times of the 1960s. Poverty, substandard educational opportunities and blatant racism, climaxing in the murder of her beloved grandfather, appear to be her birthright. Her family has lofty goals for this intelligent girl, however. Her best friend, Lynn Wambles, a privileged white girl whose birthright is equally constraining, plays an important part in Jane Ellens childhood and reappears in a most unexpected manner during their adult lives. This fictional account of the struggles of two compelling women could be the saga of many who came to maturity during those trying, confusing times.
