In 2005 Margaret Jones Bolsterli learned that her great-great-grandfather was a free mulatto named Jordan Chavis, who owned an antebellum plantation in Mississippi. With further exploration Bolsterli found that when Chavis's children crossed the Mississippi River for exile in Arkansas, they passed into the white world, leaving the family's racial history behind. Kaleidoscope is the story of this discovery, and the story of the rise and fall of the Chavis fortunes in Mississippi.
