4.0
After having read the first edition of The Covenant with Black America, the expectation for this project--ten years later--was undoubtedly high. Written by notable journalist Davis Smiley in 2016, it is a poignant reflection on Black life and the nonverbal covenant these citizens have with America and among them selves. The book is a conversation driver, one for great pontification and self-reflection, however it is not solution-driven. After reflecting, the reader is challenge to take the facts and realities of Black American life to move conversation and action forward. As it is stated, "the time has come to finally convert the trials and tribulations of Black America into the progress." Well-written, Mr. Smiley. We look forward to more.
