Description Clover’s mom says it isn’t safe to cross the fence that segregates their African-American side of town from the white side where Anna lives. But when the two girls strike up a friendship, they’ll find a clever way to get around the grown-up rules together. Twenty years after its first publication, Jacqueline Woodson's simple yet powerful book The Other Side comes to life in an evening-length dance piece from choreographer and dance educator Hope Boykin. When literal and figurative fences keep us apart, can we find the courage—and creativity—to knock them down?
