Bessie Stringfield: Tales of the Talented Tenth, No. 2 by Joel Christian Gill

3.0

For, me, this was too brief! I wanted to know so much more about Bessie Stringfield. I also felt like a lot of content was glossed over. This is where I am kind of stuck with a rating. Obviously, this is aimed at younger readers, and it is not meant to be exhaustive. However, maybe it could have gone a little deeper in parts? I did like the question asked of Mrs. Stringfield towards the end of the book about her part (or lack of a part) in the Civil Rights Movement. I also respect her answer. Overall, I love that these series are highlighting these little known heroes and heroines of Black history.
