About this listen
When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.
Andrew's life is bleak. His rough, uncaring father and overwhelmed mother don't understand their sensitive middle child. In a family with five kids, it's easy for the quiet one to get lost, and Andrew is very quiet. But when he starts fourth grade, he finds a kindred spirit in a teacher. Miss Brown appreciates the special way that Andrew sees the world and wants to help him express his view through art. However, he'll need to get permission from his parents first. Will Andrew's uneducated father block his son from the one thing that brightens his life?

Story
The girls at Modesta High School feel like they're stuck in some anti-feminist time warp - they're faced with sexism at every turn, and they've had enough. Sponsored by their new art teacher, Ms. Stark, they form the Daughters of Eve. It's more than a school club - it's a secret society, a sisterhood. At first, it seems like they are actually changing the way guys at school treat them. But Ms. Stark urges them to take more vindictive action, and it starts to feel more like revenge- brutal revenge. Blinded by their oath of loyalty, the Daughters of Eve become instruments of vengeance.

She accepted a scholarship to a mostly-white private school and even Saturday morning test prep opportunities. But some opportunities feel more demeaning than helpful.

Story
Mishna Wolff grew up in a poor black neighborhood with her single father, a white man who truly believed he was black. "He strutted around with a short perm, a Cosby-esque sweater, gold chains and a Kangol---telling jokes like Redd Fox, and giving advice like Jesse Jackson. You couldn't tell my father he was white. Believe me, I tried," writes Wolff. And so from early childhood on, her father began his crusade to make his white daughter down.
