Overground Railroad: The Green Book and the Roots of Black Travel in America by Candacy Taylor

emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

4.0

I learned SO much from this book! I knew only the basics about the Greenbook. Ms. Taylor traveled along the books history from the beginning, and she explained how traveling different greatly for African Americans. The car was a tool for independence and freedom compared to train travel. Yet families still have to hopscotch the country to fund safe spots. I appreciated the personal stories from Ms. Taylor's family history, too.
