Von der hinteren Coverseite

[first stripe]

Ruth is a nurse who lives in a good neighbourhood, with a son of whom she could not be more proud.

Kennedy is a lawyer who prides herself on the work she does with disadvantaged minorities.

Turk is a man who believes in the ultimate supremacy of the white race - devastated by the tragic death of his newborn son.

[second stripe]

As a grieving father cries for justice, the hospital seeks a scapegoat: and Ruth could lose everything she has worked so hard to build.

[third stripe]

There is a fire raging, and we have two choices: we can turn our backs, or we can try to fight it. Yes, talking about racism is hard to do, and yes, we stumble over the words - but we who are white need to have this discussion among ourselves. Because then, even more of us will overhear, and - I hope - the conversation will spread.

Author's Note

[fourth stripe]
