A Young Adult Novel for Teens about Race, Dating, and Growing Up in America

By: Mike Stone

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

"Ryan Turner was standing alone on the subway platform when he saw the punch coming." Growing up white isn't easy, especially in a mixed-race school in the heart of Hollywood, California, but 17-year-old Ryan Turner is doing the best he can. Between taunts from his teachers, race riots in the cafeteria, and threats of detention, Ryan is just trying to get through the day. A mad, hysterical world where teachers peddle Marxist ideology, pinch-nosed white girls apologize for their "racism," and everyone strives to avoid the ultimate in humiliation: diversity training. A young adult novel about race, dating and growing up in America.
