O knihe

Sarah Langston is a Caucasian girl in love with her African American boyfriend, Richard Morris. Everything is cool until she finds out she is pregnant. Sarah has a broken family, and revealing this secret to her ever-supportive dad is the most difficult thing she has ever had to do. She finds comfort in one of her best friends, Emily Wilkerson, her African American best friend. With the help of Emily's parents, Sarah tells the truth to her dad, even if haunted by fear. Surprisingly, her mom, who has never been there for her, overhears the conversation. What will happen to their already tarnished relationship? How will her mother react to this news? Abuse, the police, and the neighborhood play a part as everything comes crashing down on them.

The Minorities exemplifies the unconditional love parents have for their children, no matter what the circumstances. The support of family and friends is the most important thing one needs in times of despair. Teenage pregnancy is one of the unrelenting issues our society faces. If not prevented among the youth, it can be an avenue for violence and neglect of responsibility.

In The Minorities, one vivid example of aggression against women is being told.
