Have you ever wished you were someone else? Mary Elousie is dying to be in the school play, but the part she gets is the last one she wants–narrator of the Black History skit. Even though her grandmother, Big Momma, says it’s important to remember her heritage, Mary Elouise hates being reminded about slavery and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. She’d rather be int he skit about presidents with Brandy, the girl in her class with beautiful blond hair. Then one day, two stroytellers come to school with glorious tales of Africa…and a new way for Mary Elouise to see herself and her heritage.

Even if I’m from the south-east Asia and quite far from home, I really don’t want myself to forget my old country and my pride for it.

Even if I’m far from my birthplace, I will not forget my pride for my country.
