This picturesque book, Contradiction: The Controversies of the Joy and Pain of Living in South Carolina, deals with the tragic events and the elements of racism that happened in Charleston and North Charleston during the year 2015 as she attempts to give a birds-eye view into this as well as the history of the racism of decades and even centuries. It is the authors hope that by bringing more light to this subject, all will work harder to resolve racial issues so that something as tragic as what happened at the Emanuel AME Church, where someone just randomly chose to massacre a group based solely on their race, will never happen again. She also gives a small sample of the joy of South Carolina by sharing poetry dedicated to her heritage.
