This book was outstanding. The first page will grab you and never let go. I learned so much about her childhood as well as once she became an adult. I also felt like I had front row seats inside both the Black Liberation Army and The Black Panther Party. American Schools will only teach us about Rosa Parks and MLK. It’s up to us to teach ourselves about the hundreds (possibly thousands) of other heroes that the government keeps from us. Next up for me is An Autobiography by Angela Davis and Black Prophet by Nat Turner. Did you know that she is Tupac’s Godmother 🤯
