520    "Framed. Bullied. Disliked. But I know I can still be the 
       best. Sometimes, 12-year-old Donte wishes he were 
       invisible. As one of the few black boys at Middlefield 
       Prep, most of the students don't look like him. They don't
       like him either. Dubbing him "Black Brother," Donte's 
       teachers and classmates make it clear they wish he were 
       more like his lighter-skinned brother, Trey. When he's 
       bullied and framed by the captain of the fencing team, 
       "King" Alan, he's suspended from school and arrested. 
       Terrified, searching for a place where he belongs, Donte 
       joins a local youth center and meets former Olympic fencer
       Arden Jones. With Arden's help, he begins training as a 
       competitive fencer, setting his sights on taking down the 
       fencing team captain, no matter what. As Donte hones his 
       fencing skills and grows closer to achieving his goal, he 
       learns the fight for justice is far from over. Now Donte 
       must confront his bullies, racism, and the corrupt systems
       of power that led to his arrest. Powerful and emotionally 
       gripping, Black Brother, Black Brother is a careful 
       examination of the school-to-prison pipeline and follows 
       one boy's fight against racism and his empowering path to 
       finding his voice"--|cProvided by publisher.
