On a harrowing road trip through the South, John’s eyes and mind are opened to the injustices of segregation and racism, inspiring him to take action. As John meets Rosa Parks and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and ultimately becomes a leader and American hero himself, Jayden learns how he can be become a leader, too.
