Her family inhabits the upper echelon of Black society, and when she falls for no-account Renard, she is forced to choose between her life of privilege and the man she loves. In 1982, Evelyn's daughter, Jackie, is a frazzled single mother grappling with her absent husband's drug addiction. Just as she comes to terms with his abandoning the family, he returns, ready to resume their old life. Jackie's son, T.C., loves the creative process of growing marijuana more than the weed itself. He was a square before Hurricane Katrina, but the New Orleans he knew didn't survive the storm. Fresh out of a four-month stint for drug charges, T.C. decides to start over--until an old friend convinces him to stake his new beginning on one last deal. For Evelyn, Jim Crow is an ongoing reality, and in its wake new threats spring up to haunt her descendants. A Kind of Freedom is an urgent novel that explores the legacy of racial disparity in the South through a poignant and redemptive family history."-- Dust jacket.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Aiea Public Library Adult Fiction Sexton   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Aina Haina Public Library Adult Fiction Sexton   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Sexton   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Fiction Sexton   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Fiction Sexton   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Fiction Sexton   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Nanakuli Public Library Adult Fiction Sexton   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waimea Public Library (Kauai) Adult Fiction Sexton Domestic Checked In Add Copy to MyList
