Description:
In 1964 segregation is a reality in Catesville, Mississippi, but 12-year-old Rachel doesn’t notice it because she has many white friends. When a group of civil rights activists comes to town, the tension between black and white citizens grows. It’s now up to Rachel and her friends to persuade the adults to overcome the racial barriers that divide them.
Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating: - Nice Plot
I rather enjoy movies with an historical twist, particularly African American films. Danny Glover and Denise Nicholas did a fantastic job together on this one. Very good!
Rating: - Excellent teaching tool
I first saw this movie when I was about six or seven years old. It gave me my first glimpse of the Civil Rights Movement.
Rating:  - And The Children Shall Lead
This is a great inspirational movie!
Rating:  - Typical PBS stuff but soft intro to racism
If I wanted to introduce a young child to racism, I wouldn't start off with "Rosewood" "Amistad" or "Beloved" (although my toddler has been with me to two of them). This is a tame afterschool-special-like treatment of racism in the South. Good for showing at school or to young children.
