I don’t think anything can dethrone Warriors Don’t Cry as my favorite of Ms. Beals' books, but March Forward, Girl comes close. Written in language accessible to young people, it's just as captivating to adults--an amazing memoir of a segregationist childhood and Ms. Beals' reflections about that experience.There are many specific touches that are affecting: young Melba’s struggle to rationalize faith in an omnipotent God who would allow such a horrific, unfair system to exist; the daily ritual of drawing the shades and blacking out the windows at dusk; the potent threat a handsy white milkman presents to her family; the observation that no white man ever rendered aid to the black community under any circumstance. These capture the imagination and make the narrative crackle with life for the reader.I thought nothing would top the church lynching, absolutely petrifying from the moment the door is bolted from within and from without. But when eleven-year-old Melba falls into the hands of the Klansmen, it has the nightmare feel of a horrific fairytale. Even as she escapes, Grandma and Mother Lois must contrive to disguise and protect her from the Klansmen who will not stop searching for her. The unending threat to her existence they posed is something that’s hard to imagine. It is amazing to me that, after all that, she would dare go into the jaws of death as one of the Little Rock Nine.One of the things I really appreciate is the way Ms. Beals's trilogy of memoirs gives such a gripping, complex portrait of different stages in her life experience. They reinforce one another without retelling the same story. The initial section of White Is a State of Mind continues the story of Warriors Don't Cry, the chronicle of the year nine black children walked into the lion's den to integrate Little Rock's Central High. It provides a fascinating account of the manner in which the Arkansas government refused to accept the end of school segregation—a stubborn determination which helps explain why the battle for civil rights is far from over. It seems truly a two-steps-forward-one-step-backwards march.These experiences must be shared and heard by all Americans, just as the horrors of the Holocaust should be acknowledged and remembered. For no one said it better than William Faulker: "The past is never over. It's not even past."
One of four memoirs by this highly talented writer. It is painful to read all four but each one reveals life experiences from a number of angles. It is sad to have people who are forced to think, "my People". For this person it partially signifies, we either are different or seen as such. Each book is a profile of bravery and hope. The author not only created solutions but also appreciation. If we look for an example of being inclusive and responsible Ms. Beals is it. She is both brilliant but never removed.
This is an important work, a must read for every American. It is about what it was like for a smart, beautiful, sensitive Black girl to grow up in the Jim Crow south. It will tear your heart out.
My can-year-old granddaughter loved this book. She usually just reads fanciful things so, this was a big departure and very impactful. Thanks member for writing a book for young people.
Excellent book that everyone should read!! Gives lots of insight into Melba Patillo Beals early childhood, showing how her character developed so that she could have the courage to be one of the Little Rock Nine. This might be written for young readers, but I think adults will find it inspiring too.
Must read!
Reading the authors account of her experiences makes me sad at what people of color had to endure. Dry sad.
Loved it...should be a part of public school book requirements.
