If I Didn’t Care

America. After December 7, 1941. Before May 17, 1954. Jim Crow is alive and well. Two women begin trips of discovery. MayBelle Washington, from St. Louis, sends her sons to all-black schools and advocates racial equality. Flo Maxwell, from an all-white Sundown town, travels to St. Louis for breast cancer treatment. She's cured of her physical ailment, but learns about other scourges. Sub-standard public housing. Pearl Harbor and World War II. Racial exclusion in the military. It takes only a traffic accident to bring apartheid American style to a full head. The damaged cars are the same color, but the drivers aren't. Which man should be arrested? MayBelle's son or a white man in Flo's hometown? And who's to decide?
