I grew up in southeast Kansas so this book was particularly interesting to me. It holds some of the best geographical descriptions of the southeastern part of the state. Though racially not accepted as a child, Fort Scott has now embraced the author as a favorite son. He is now buried in the place he always called home. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Based on Parks' semi-autobiographical novel, the film follows the journey of Newt Winger, a teenage descendant of Exodusters growing up in rural Kansas in the 1920s, as he experiences the bittersweet flowering of first love, finds his relationship with a close friend tested, and navigates the injustices embedded within a racist legal and educational system. Exquisitely capturing the bucolic splendor of its heartland setting, this landmark film tempers nostalgia with an incisive understanding of the harsh realities, hard-won lessons, and often wrenching moral choices that shape the road to self-determination of the young Black man at its center.
