"The struggle against racism takes many forms: statues of Confederate heroes have been removed, Confederate-named schools have been renamed, and efforts to help minorities vote have been made. But despite these accomplishments in confronting racism, there is more work to be done. Removing statues and changing names are outward demonstrations of the fight against racism, but in the end, change must begin in the hearts of all Americans"--

In an alternate 1930s Mississippi, magic is regulated by those in power and Blacks and other people of color are prohibited from practicing it--unless, of course, they get an exemption. Hoping to earn enough money for the exemption fee, or to simply move away to a state where they can practice magic, a coven of witches form a team to participate in underground broom racing, which is lucrative but illegal. Led by captain Billie Mae and her best friend Loretta, the team includes transmasculine Cheng-Kwan, and Choctaw and Black Mattie and Emma. As local officials try to catch them breaking the law, the group prepares for their biggest race yet, which could be the answer to their prayers or the source of their downfall.
