DESCRIPTION:The American Daughters by Maurice Carlos RuffinAdy, a curious,
  sharp-witted girl, and her fierce mother, Sanite, are inseparable. Enslav
 ed to a businessman in the French Quarter of New Orleans, the pair spend t
 heir days reminiscing about their family’s rebellious and storied histor
 y and dreaming of a loving future. When mother and daughter are separated,
  Ady is left hopeless and directionless until she stumbles into the Mockin
 gbird Inn and meets Lenore, a free Black woman with whom she becomes fast 
 friends. Lenore invites Ady to join a clandestine society of spies called 
 the Daughters. With the courage instilled in her by Sanite—and with help
  from these strong women—Ady learns how to put herself first. So begins 
 her journey toward liberation and imagining a new future.Also available vi
