Set in Harlem in 1987, it is the story of Claireece Precious Jones, a sixteen-year-old African-American girl born into a life no one would want. Shes pregnant for the second time by her absent father; at home, she must wait hand and foot on her mother, a poisonously angry woman who abuses her emotionally and physically. School is a place of chaos, and Precious has reached the ninth grade with good marks and an awful secret: she can neither read nor write. Precious may sometimes be down, but she is never out. Beneath her impassive expression is a watchful, curious young woman with an inchoate but unshakeable sense that other possibilities exist for her. Threatened with expulsion, Precious is offered the chance to transfer to an alternative school, Each One/Teach One. Precious doesnt know the meaning of alternative, but her instincts tell her this is the chance she has been waiting for. In the literacy workshop taught by the patient yet firm Ms. Rain, Precious begins a journey that will lead her from darkness, pain and powerlessness to light, love and self-determination.

  • Because the fatty, ...

    Because the fatty, unhealthy food is the cheap food. Compare the price of fruits and vegetables to the price of a burger and fries at McDonalds. Oftentimes people can't afford better food. Also, it can be a lack of education about nutrition and general health. You'd be surprised how many people don't understand the concept of healthy foods containing vital nutrients your body needs to function properly, compared to nutritionally devoid junk food.
