Lynnette Mawhinney

As an older white woman of born to immigrants and raised in the rural upper Midwest of Wisconsin, I can only be appalled at what others have been subject to. I had never believed that people could be so evil to one another until I was chatting with co-workers in an inner-city mission hospital (and later as a nurse in a major county jail) even though I had participated in a number of protests. This book is not only for those who bore the burden of injustice, but also for those who need to know that these things were done to their neighbors and that they were and are wrong. It clearly shows how children have been subtly harmed in the past. We all owe a great debt to people like Mamie Phipps Clark for helping to right wrongs that are not yet in the past.
The illustrations by the Neil Evans in this nonfiction graphic novel are clear, imaginative, colorful, and meaningful.
Well suited for reading WITH someone of any age including ESL, and great for gifting to everyone, but especially to a school or your local public library.
I requested and received a free temporary e-book on Adobe Digital Editions from American Psychological Association | Magination Press via NetGalley. Thank you!
