Hi, all. I've just submitted Civil Wars by Rosellen Brown to the step one list. Headers have been stripped. Page breaks have been protected, and common scannos removed. Find the synopsis below. Jessie and Teddy, an idealistic couple, who participated in the civil rights movement in the 60's, are practically the only whites in their neighborhood. They have raised their children in an environment of racial tolerance. However, when Teddy's sister and her husband are killed in an accident, Teddy and Jessie take in her two children, budding racists in their own right. The family is forced to move, and Jessie struggles to help the children come to terms with their loss, while teaching them about tolerance. Shannon I am only one; but still I am one.
