Description

Sam's world is turned upside down when he discovers literature about the Black Panthers under his brother Stick's bed. His father, a civil rights activist, has always taught him that change can be achieved without violence, but as Sam becomes more involved with the Panthers, he begins to question whose words to trust: his father or his best friend. As Sam navigates this complex situation, he must confront the harsh realities of racism in his community. With his friends and family suffering at the hands of prejudice, Sam is faced with a difficult decision: will he follow his father's message of non-violence or his brother's involvement with the Panthers? The Rock and the River is a powerful exploration of loyalty, identity, and the struggle for justice. This thought-provoking novel explores themes of family, friendship, and social change in 1960s America.
