Roll of thunder, hear my cry

Taylor, Mildred D. (Author).

Summary: Set in Mississippi at the height of the 1930's Depression, Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry is the unforgettable story of one family's struggle to maintain their independence, integrity, and pride, in the face of racism and social injustice. And, too, it is Cassie's story, Cassie Logan, an independent girl who has grown up protected by a loving family, unaware that any white person could consider her inferior and treat her accordingly. During the events of one turbulent year, a year when the night men threaten Cassie's community, Cassie and her three brothers come to see why the land means so much to their family, why having a place of their own permits the Logans the luxuries of pride and courage their share cropper neighbors can't afford and their white neighbors can't allow.
