Maleah Dunn, a 15-year-old high school student longs to fit in with her classmates. But as one of the few black students in an all-white school, she keeps finding herself sticking out. Especially after a violent incident involving her classmate, Derrick Eddy, who she believes to be the victim of a racial hate crime. But in order to prove it, she’ll have to give up on her goal of fitting in, and accept all that comes with her identity, even as school administrators try to stop her at every turn, and fear of her own truth may even cause her to stop herself.
