C. P. Ellis grew up in a poor white area of Durham, North Carolina, and as a young man joined the Ku Klux Klan. Ann Atwater, a single mother from the impoverished black part of town, quit her job as a domestic worker to join the civil rights struggle.

During the 1960s, as the country grapples with an explosive racial problem, Atwater and Ellis meet on opposite sides of the issue of public school integration. Their meeting was filled with hatred and suspicion. However, in a series of startling transformations, each of them saw how the other had been exploited by the rigid Southern power structure, and they forged a blossoming friendship. in the context of unrelenting stubbornness.

Rich with details about the daily rhythms of mid-20th-century Southern life, The Best of Enemies offers a vivid portrait of a relationship that defied all odds. By placing this very personal story into broader context, Osha Gray Davidson demonstrates that race is intimately linked to class issues and that cooperation is possible – even in situations the most divisive situations – when people start listening to each other.

This audiobook is very moving and considers in detail the background, struggles, and life-changing relationships he came to. Just as Saul changed to Paul with the glory of a false relationship, this story proves that we can become greater than before.
