In this special edition, you will hear from South Carolina author Sandra E. Johnson. Sandra discussed her book, Standing on Holy Ground: A Triumph over Hate Crime in the Deep South. This book powerfully narrates the true story of how two women--one white, the other black--risked their lives to lead an interracial group of volunteers to rebuild a historic black church in Dixiana, SC, that had been destroyed by hate crime. In addition to receiving glowing reviews from O: The Oprah Magazine, USA Today, Southern Living, and numerous other publications, the book received a Christopher Award for Literature. Sandra E. Johnson has also written for Lake Murray-Columbia, Columbia Metropolitan, Family Motor Coaching, and a number of other magazines. She frequently teaches creative writing at Midlands Technical College and is currently at work on a novel set in South Carolina's Lowcountry. This lunchtime program was presented on Thursday February 19th by the State Library's South Carolina Center for the Book, the South Carolina affiliate of the Library of Congress Center for the Book. The SC Center for the Book is a cooperative project of the State Library, the University of South Carolina School of Library and Information Science, and The Humanities Council SC.
