Abstract

This novel takes us down the rabbit hole of a past we know and a future we are now uncertain of. Slavery, segregation, the civil rights movement; we act as though these events are in our country’s distant past, that we would never allow such an atrocity to happen again. Because we think we’ve learned from our mistakes. Yet a man who referred to a black man as his African American now holds the highest office in the land. So when it happens, if it happens, when it happens, this is how it happens.
