The 1619 Project: Born on the Water by Nikole Hannah-Jones, Renée Watson

5.0

This amazing book, from the 1619 Project, provides a pathway for readers of all ages to reflect on the history of Black Americans who lives started not in slavery but in their own land where they had talents, love, family, culture, pride. Even after these people were enslaved they still had dreams and hopes and learned new ways to show love, have friends, express joy, and to resist their enslavors. This should be required reading for everyone.
