After the Supreme Court ruling in Brown v. Board of Education, Dawnie learns she will be attending a previously all-white school. Shes the only one of her friends to go to this new school and to leave behind all that is familiar to face great uncertainty in the school year ahead.\nHowever, not everyone supports integration and much of the town is outraged at the decision. Dawnie must endure the harsh realities of racism firsthand, while continuing to work hard to get a good education and prove she deserves the opportunity. But the backlash against Dawnies attendance of an all-white school is more than shes prepared for. When her father loses his job as a result, and her little brother is bullied, Dawnie has to wonder if its worth it. In time, Dawnie learns that the true meaning of justice comes from remaining faithful to the integrity within oneself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Scholastic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45253579407413,"sku":"ByrdShop_0545297052","price":23.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780545297059_c7079a0c-8d99-4b5d-8943-968f2230d499.jpg?v=1779945113","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/dear-america-with-the-might-of-angels-9780545297059","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
