Chapter 2: The Jacksons

Across the country, in the bustling metropolis of Chicago, the Jackson family confronted societal pressures of a different kind. With their fair complexions and ambiguous ethnic features, they were often mistaken for white, an advantage they initially exploited to escape the racial barriers that held so many others back.

However, as the civil rights movement gained momentum, a growing sense of guilt and unease gnawed at their consciences. The Jacksons realized that their silence was complicit in the perpetuation of racial injustice. The family embarked on a courageous journey of self-discovery and activism, using their platform to advocate for racial equality.
