This is American History X meets White American Youth by Christopher Picciolini.A hard-hitting exploration of teens and white supremacy unlike any other story out there.As a Jewish woman whose family has dealt with anti-Semitism both during the Holocaust and in the generations since, Sarah brings her own personal lens and experience to this story.Unfortunately this topic is all too timely and there haven't been many recent YA books examining this from a contemporary angle. This is very much a story of redemption and not one that glamorizes. Excerpted from Some Kind of Hate by Sarah Darer Littman All rights reserved by the original copyright owners.
