Beyond the Miles

Beyond the Miles is a fiction story about two people of different ethnicity growing up in the South in the 50s, where the only communication between blacks and whites was that blacks worked for whites either as domestics or in the cotton fields.

The characters of this story are two young people that grew up in the same rural community, but because of segregation in the South, they had no interaction. They both relocated to the North and, as fate would have it, became a part of the same social circle and fell in love.

This story shows that love is so powerful it expands beyond all barriers and overcomes all obstacles, including racism. It shows just how damaging racism is and how we as a society have to find a way to overcome racism.
