Annotated Bibliography #7

The Road to Memphis by Mildred Taylor

The eighth and final book, so far, in the Logan series. Like a majority of the books in this series, this book is narrated by Cassie Logan, now seventeen years old. Cassie is home with her family, but the time is nearing for her to head back to her high school in Jackson. As per the norm, Cassie and her friends and family are humiliated in some way, merely for the color of their skin. When Cassie and her brothers get back to Jackson, they find a friend of theirs, Moe, is not there. He has done something, and will likely be convicted for it. It is decided he would be better off in Memphis, so they take him there. On the way they deal with many obstacles, many of which stem from the "separate but equal" way things are done.
