520    As an element of the Los Angeles Riots, the shooting of 
       Latasha Harlins finally gets the attention it deserves 
       from renowned historian Brenda Stevenson. Stevenson gives 
       us fascinating and full portraits of each of the three 
       women involved: the teenage African-American victim, the 
       Korean immigrant shooter, and the Jewish American judge. 
       She traces all three lives deep into the past and forward 
       to that fateful moment in the South Central convenience 
       store in March 1991. A gripping read and a revealing 
       perspective on the varied and intersecting lives of 
       American women at century's end." --Ellen Carol DuBois,
