The question is can these two older women get past their own ingrained ideas of how life should be to protect a teenager they don’t even understand? Making Sweet Tea and Other Secrets refers to all the hidden bigotry, prejudice and even brutality a town will turn a blind eye to, until forced to bring those secrets to light and fight back.”
