Righteous Intent
In the year 2047, Mitchell Hughes, a visually impaired divorced schoolteacher with two young children, is on trial for murder. The only eyewitness to the murder is a poly-gig micro-tronic computer chip implanted deep within the brain of every United States citizen. This computerized chip implant is known as the DuoDrite. The DuoDrite chip implant is engineered as the first transmitter and receiver for communications and entertainment, replacing personal computers, global positioning systems, cellular telephones, and home entertainment devices.

The Nicest Kids in Town
American Bandstand, one of the most popular television shows ever, broadcast from Philadelphia in the late fifties, a time when that city had become a battleground for civil rights. Counter to host Dick Clark’s claims that he integrated American Bandstand, this book reveals how the first national television program directed at teens discriminated against black youth during its early years and how black teens and civil rights advocates protested this discrimination. Matthew F. Delmont brings together major themes in American history—civil rights, rock and roll, television, and the emergence of a youth culture—as he tells how white families around American Bandstand’s studio mobilized to maintain all-white neighborhoods and how local school officials reinforced segregation long after Brown vs. Board of Education. The Nicest Kids in Town powerfully illustrates how national issues and history have their roots in local situations, and how nostalgic representations of the past, like the musical film Hairspray, based on the American Bandstand era, can work as impediments to progress in the present.
