Welcome to Litsy!

This book is a really interesting insight into an aspect of the Jim Crow South I've been curious about - the place of people who are neither black nor white. While the story seemed more complicated than the we shall overcome vibe the author was pushing for, I liked the book overall.

This is an interesting book to read so soon after In the Country We Love. I know that xenophobia is cyclical, but the extent to which a lot of the crap Latino/a immigrants deal with today is the exact same crap my grandfather and people like him dealt with when they immigrated is still worth noting.
