REQUIRED READING FOR THE DISENFRANCHISED FRESHM...

A striking debut novel about racism on elite college campuses. Fans of Dear White People will
embrace this activist-centered contemporary novel about a college freshman grappling with the
challenges of attending an elite university with a disturbing racist history  which may not be
as distant as it seems. Savannah Howard sacrificed her high school social life to make sure she
got into a top college. Her sights were set on an HBCU  but when she is accepted to the
ivy-covered walls of Wooddale University on a full ride  how can she say no? Wooddale is far
from the perfectly manicured community it sells on its brochures  though. Savannah has barely
unpacked before she comes face to face with microagressions stemming from racism and elitism.
Then Clive Wilmington's statue is vandalized with blackface. The prime suspect? Lucas
Cunningham  Wooddale's most popular student and son of a local prominent family. Soon Savannah
is unearthing secrets of Wooddale's racist history. But what's the price for standing up for
what is right? And will telling the truth about Wooddale's past cost Savannah her own future? A
stunning  challenging  and timely debut about racism and privilege on college campuses.
