Cover of The Grace of Silence: A Memoir

I finally finished the Grace of Silence, which I really liked by Michele Norris of NPR.  It was great to read about Minnesota, Minneapolis and St. Paul through her and her families viewpoint.
Some parts of the book really spoke to me:

Here is the conundrum of racism.  You know it's there, but you can't prove, beyond a reasonable doubt how it colors a particular situation.  

Many steps lead to the crossing of a threshold, and many are the people, often anonymous, who play minor roles in history's grand tales.  I am betting that some of them might be sitting at your family table.
