Our Side . . . Our Truth Revonne Johnson

This book details the controversial events that led to the probation of Yazoo City High School in 1980. These events are documented from the perspective of the girls' basketball team, the coach, and the fans attending the 1980 North Sub-District 6 AA playoff tournament in Pearl, Mississippi. Unexpected events led to the unjust disqualification of the team and undeserving penalties for the entire school. For years, mistruths have been shared about tournament events, the team's behavior, and the coach's leadership. This book corrects these falsehoods and leaves the reader with a brazen version of the truth that is both credible and convincing.
