Let the Circle Be Unbroken

The book I've read for the 2nd quarter was "Let the Circle Be Unbroken" by Mildred  D. Taylor which is by far an interesting book in my opinion.  It talks about an African American girl named Cassie Logan who narrates the whole story of her family and friends.  Her family owns land which was passed down to by the grandparents who owned it.  The issue that comes along with this novel is that a man named Mr. Granger, a wealthy white man threatens the family that he will take their land away from them.  Now, during this time period, racial tensions are obviously strong due to Caucasians thinking they are superior to African Americans.  I can't really spoil too much about the book but if you're curious about if they kept their land or not I recommend you read this book.  It really makes you think about how bad it feels just being discriminated because of the color of your skin.
