White Lilacs by Carolyn Meyer
Young Rose Lee Jefferson is shocked to learn that the white residents of Dillon, Texas, want to raze the city's black enclave, Freedomtown, and build a park in its place.

Will the families of Freedomtown be able to save their thriving community? Includes a reader's guide.
