But Kuespert brings to the subject her intense study of urban life, her experience working in the local African American community, and her big heart. Since the time of slavery when blacks had no power, no vote, no freedom to advance, today we sense that the tables of power are turning. As small glimpses of equality emerge, Kuespert shows us in this surprisingly tender story how two families in Chestertown, Maryland struggle to adjust.
Kuespert grew up in the Midwest and became sensitized to racial inequality after moving east. She earned her Masters in Urban Affairs and Public Policy from the University of Delaware, served as executive director of an urban art center and as a fundraising consultant for numerous social service organizations. She lives in a Quaker community in Kennett Square, Pennsylvania.ver menos
