Henderson, a prominent Black physical educator, civil rights activist, and historian of Black sports.

IL MALE NON È MAI STATO COSÌ ATTRAENTE... Con una famiglia da mantenere, avere un buon impiego è per Evie Sage una priorità. E così, quando un incidente con il più famigerato cattivo di Rennedawn si traduce in un'offerta di lavoro, lei accetta.
