In a turbulent era, the Logan family confronts injustice and prejudice. T.J. faces a murder trial with an all-white jury, while Suzella's attempt to pass as white leads to disgrace. Cassie's neighbor, Mrs. Lee Annie, fights for her voting rights, only to be driven from her home.

Will their resilience be enough to overcome the trials they face?

From the publisher

A stunning repackage of a companion to Mildred D. Taylor’s Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry, with cover art by two-time Caldecott Honor Award winner Kadir Nelson! It is a frightening and turbulent time for the Logan family. First, their friend T.J. must go on trial for murder–and confront an all-white jury. Then, Cousin Suzella tries to pass for white, with humiliating consequences. And when Cassie’s neighbor, Mrs. Lee Annie, stands up for her right to vote, she and her family are driven from their home. Other neighbors are destroyed and shattered by the greed of landowners. But through it all, Cassie and the Logans stand together and stand proud–proving that courage, love, and understanding can defy even the deepest prejudice. “This dramatic sequel to Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry is a powerful novel . . .capable of touching readers of any age.”–The Christian Science Monitor “A profoundly affecting novel.”–Publishers Weekly
