When a decades-long court battle resulted in her family's freedom in 1855, seven-year-old Mary Mildred Williams unexpectedly became the face of American slavery.

Girl in Black and White restores Mary to her rightful place in history, "probing issues of colorism and racial politics" (New York Times Book Review) that still affect us profoundly today.
