Mildred D. Taylor grew up listening to her family's stories about life for Black families in the South. Those stories inspired her novels about the Logan family of Mississippi. Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry, set during the Great Depression, won the Newbery Medal in 1977. Her books deal honestly with racism and injustice, so they are wonderful to read and discuss together.
