Set in the 1960s, this story follows three young Black women who aid in desegregating a Northeast college. Grace is a timid girl, raised not to cause too much fuss but that all changes when she meets the charismatic, justice-seeking Michael who swaggers into her life and changes her forever. Diane isn't shy, she's anything but and if she knows anything it's that she is going to be a doctor. Even if it means losing the one person she has ever loved. Ruth doesn't want to join the movement, in fact she thinks it would be best if the movement didn't exist, especially after her dad's death. Her biggest fear is losing another family member to the movement. Come along as these three girls become friends and face life in a world that hates them for the color of their skin.
