Reseña del libro "A Bucket of Whitewash (en Inglés)"
This story takes place in 1963 in Mississippi before legal segregation in the South was ended with the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The characters are fictional, but the attitudes and actions of the whites in Mississippi at that time are not a fiction.The story centers on Angie Pennington, a black research assistant to Professor Craig Harris of the University of Chicago. Angie has romantic designs on her white boss and when she is rebuffed she returns to her home in Mississippi after an absence of seven years.Angie thinks the segregation laws are ridiculous and when she fails to observe them she is badly beaten and arrested. This is a story of love and hate, of kidnapping and murder, of the quest for fame and fortune.You will meet intriguing characters like Amos Silver who plots to make a fortune out of the race trial in Mississippi. You will also discover Angie's shameful past and her loving family.There is also Mabel, the fierce defender of segregation and Cindy Lou Carter, Miss White Supremacy, who takes delight in torturing Angie.This book makes the past come alive with unforgettable scenes, memorable characters and an intriguing plot.It may also change race relations in America.
