"A searing and emotionally gripping account of a young black girl growing up to become a strong black woman during the most difficult time of racial segregation."--Professor Charles Ogletree, Harvard Law School "Provides important context for an important moment in America's history."--Associated PressWhen fourteen-year-old Carlotta Walls walked up the stairs of Little Rock Central High School on September 25, 1957, she and eight other black students only wanted to make it to class. But the journey of the "Little Rock Nine," as they came to be known, would lead the nation on an even longer and much more turbulent path, one that would challenge prevailing attitudes, break down barriers, and forever change the landscape of America. For Carlotta and the eight other children, simply getting through the door of this admired academic institution involved angry mobs, racist elected officials, and intervention by President Dwight D. Eisenhower, who was forced to send in the 101st Airborne to escort the Nine into the building. But entry was simply the first of many trials. Breaking her silence at last and sharing her story for the first time, Carlotta Walls has written an engrossing memoir that is a testament not only to the power of a single person to make a difference but also to the sacrifices made by families and communities that found themselves a part of history.

Amazing primer/sunscreen, even for olive skin.
I was a bit hesitant to try this primer because of its yellow color, since I am Anglo-Indian with olive skin (a little darker than Jennifer Lopez). But it says it is for "all skin types" so I tried it anyway. And I am really glad I did. This product blends in really well to the skin to become translucent. It does leave my face a little paler, but what does one expect with zinc and titanium dioxide? The paleness may also be in part because I apply a lot of it, since I use it as my facial sunscreen on most days. What I do is then apply a light dusting of powder to make my skin tone back to normal again.
It is a lovely soft and moussy consistency that spreads easily and evenly on my face. My powder goes on flawlessly over it, which is a far cry from what powder looks like on my face without this primer. The powder doesn't settle into my facial lines either.
All in all, this product is amazing. Don't be put off buy the yellow color. Try it!

Ljd
This is the best primer for your face, you just need a dot and spread evenly over your face. Sometimes this is all I wear.. it’s light not heavy and natural looking.

Love!
I love this product! I'm in my early 50s, and though I take good care of my skin I do have some more-than-fine lines, especially around my eyes (crow's feet). I won't say this primer erases those lines, but it manages to smooth out my skin enough that they look less noticeable (but still noticeable, don't get me wrong... only plastic surgery and Botox will fix that). I often wear this without any other makeup. It has the effect of smoothing and softening the look of your skin and minimizing pores, kind of like using a soft lighting filter and Photoshop photo editing software! It makes my face look softer, if that makes sense. Love it, love how smooth it feels on my skin. Don't love the smell (not that it's overly cloying), but it disappears quickly. One bottle lasts a loooong time, as in months and months, because a little goes a long way.

SLIGHTLY SMOOTHER BUT NOT BRIGHTER SKIN
Used it years ago as "Line Tamer"...same product, more money, but a nice primer for liquid, cream or powder foundations. It doesn't tame the lines much, which is likely why the name was changed...I have pink skin...this really doesn't help with that, but does provide a smooth base on which to begin your makeup application...I like it, even at the relatively expensive price as I use loose powder foundation and like the smooth appearance it lends to my makeup. I see zero "brightening" effect...
