520    "In January of 1963, Sharon Robinson turned thirteen the 
       night before George Wallace declared on national 
       television 'segregation now, segregation tomorrow, 
       segregation forever' in his inauguration for governor of 
       Alabama. That was the start of a year that would become 
       one of the most pivotal years in the history of America. 
       As the daughter of Jackie Robinson, Sharon had incredible 
       access to some of the most important events of the era, 
       including her family hosting several fundraisers for 
       Martin Luther King Jr. at their home in Connecticut, other
       Civil Rights heroes of the day calling Jackie Robinson for
       advice and support, and even attending the March on 
       Washington for Freedom and Jobs. But Sharon was also 
       dealing with her own personal problems like going through 
       puberty, being one of the only black children in her 
       wealthy Connecticut neighborhood, and figuring out her own
       role in the fight for equality. This memoir follows Sharon
       as she goes through that incredible year of her life"--
