The Great Divide

They did not make the rules, they only fell in love despite them.

Seventeen-year-old Chrissie is accepted at The Christian Academy, an exclusive private school. Her father goes through a great deal of trouble to secure a scholarship here for Chrissie, and in the privacy of his own home he sighs with relief because now his daughter no longer has to go to school with so many black kids. She auditions as backup singer for Lastique, a school band, and the lead singer is an eighteen-year-old, black boy, named Vincent.
