As the Civil Rights movement is brewing, a children’s book about a black rabbit marrying a white rabbit stirs the passion of both a segregationist State Senator who wants the book to be banned, and a no-nonsense State Librarian in 1959 Montgomery, Alabama. A contrasting story of childhood friends – an African American man and a woman of white privilege, reunited in adulthood – provides private counterpoint to the public events swirling in the state capital. Inspired by true events!
