CHECKERED FENCES
This book is based upon my personal experiences with an interracial relationship in the 60's and 70's. It also deals with other issues such as racism, domestic violence, race relations, political and social change, and diversity. It's not a hate story. It's a love story.
You can also hear me on my first radio interview at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/Checkered-Fences/2009/04/28/Alma-Hudson-Author-of-Checkered-Fences. I'm also on E-Book. Check it out on my author's website at http://www.eloquentbooks.com/CheckeredFences.html.
