This book broke my heart and took me on an important and informative journey. I learned so much about Kossula’s life, of course, but I also learned to sit in the discomfort of reading the book. I became aware of my own blind spots in history, which contributed to my own biases. Being able to read this book is a gift.

Is this an extremely important book for the African-American history? Yes.
Did I struggle to read it? Yes.
Did my heart ache for this man (and the thousands of others, men, women, children, like him)? Of course.
Did I like it? Unfortunately not.
Would I recommend it? Yes, it's historical, and/or laographical value is huge.
