Everything was going just fine for Mae until yesterday. That was when she found out that her eyes were turning green. In Mae's world people discriminate against those with green eyes. Green-eyed people cannot vote or hold public office and they are often forced to work the worst jobs for the least pay, if they can even find a job. Mae parents want her to have surgery to change her eye color, but her grandma, who also has green eyes, encourages her to fight for her rights. Mae joins a resistance and becomes the poster child for green-eyed rights, but how will all of this attention affect Mae's family, especially her parents who wanted her to hide who she was?
