Description
Donte wishes he were invisible. As one of the few black boys at his school, he feels as if he is constantly swimming in whiteness. Most of the students don't look like him and they don't like him either. The incident with a white student leads to Donte's arrest and suspension, but he sees it as an opportunity to take action. With the help of a former Olympic fencer, Donte embarks on a journey to carve out a spot on the school's fencing team and to find a way to make people see past his skin colour to who he really is. This powerful coming-of-age story explores how children face the complexities of race and racism in today's world.
