Dawn, tall and studious; her sister, Kim, younger by three years and headstrong as they come; and her best friend, Debra, already promqueen pretty by third grade. They bondedfervently and intensely in that unique way of little girlsas they roamed the concrete landscape of Bronzeville, a historic neighborhood on Chicagos South Side, the destination of hundreds of thousands of Black folks who fled the ravages of the Jim Crow South.These thirdgeneration daughters of the Great Migration come of age in the 1970s, in the warm glow of the recent civil rights movement. It has offered them a promise, albeit nascent and fragile, that they will have more opportunities, rights, and freedoms than any generation of Black Americans in history. Their workingclass, striving parents are eager for them to realize this hardfought potential. But the girls have much more immediate concerns: hiding under the dining room table and eavesdropping on grown folks business; collecting secret treasures; and daydreaming about their futuresDawn and Debra, doctors, Kim a teacher. For a brief, wondrous moment the girls are all giggles and dreams and promises of friends forever. And then fate intervenes, first slowly and then dramatically, sending them careening in wildly different directions. Theres heartbreak, loss, displacement, and even murder. Dawn struggles to make sense of the shocking turns that consume her sister and her best friend, all the while asking herself a simple but profound question: Why?In the vein of The Other Wes Moore and The Short and Tragic Life of Robert Peace, Three Girls from Bronzeville is a piercing memoir that chronicles Dawns attempt to find answers. Its at once a celebration of sisterhood and friendship, a testimony to the unique struggles of Black women, and a tourdeforce about the complex interplay of race, class, and opportunity, and how those forces shape our lives and our capacity for resilience and redemption.
