Awakening To Racial Injustice

Zenetta Henchman awakens to the racial injustices rooted in her small town when she witnesses a Black neighbor’s fatal shooting. The lack of justice delivered by the police, along with the lack of attention the shooting receives from those in authority in her community, outrages Zenetta and causes her to question the need to respect an authority that can’t protect her.
