A review by brassnbooks
Negroland by Margo Jefferson
reflective
medium-paced
3.75
The childhood parts felt like a solid 5 stars but the adult sections especially the last two chapters were hard to read
I'm not really sure the purpose of this book either?
The childhood parts were a good insight in like in the 50s being upper(middle) class black people but then the rest feels like a lot of anything?
There's not much to connect to that the depression section was boring
I wouldn't really recommend it to others but I didn't hate the book it's just hella confusing on purpose or what the author wanted me to feel or take away if anything at all
