Roots

Such a difficult but necessary read. I think that when everyone is old enough, they should read this book. We think we know about our country's evil path with slavery, but we don't truly. Even after reading this book I know there are atrocities that I couldn't even imagine. This novel takes us back... back to when the people who were enslaved were just living... truly living their best lives. These histories are difficult to digest, but they must be told. We must be better as people.
