I want to read every word Amy Julia Becker writes. No one I know captures so completely the ache and the joy of being human.
Andy CrouchAuthor of Strong and Weak
I first met Amy Julia Becker in a classic “privilege” moment. She was an editor. I was a writer. I am black. She is white. . . . In her I found a brave combination of many things I respect . . . namely, restraint, fairness, intelligence, curiosity, kindness, courage, hope. . . . This is who you will discover in White Picket Fences.
