hopeful informative medium-paced

4.0

Major thanks to NetGalley and Doubleday for offering me an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest thoughts:

Let Painter keep talking. Perhaps the greatest anti-thesis to the way states like Texas and Florida are responding to US history by censoring all the bloodshed. But Painter asks, what of the beauty?

Names unknown to me, this was an incredibly informative read. It's black history you didn't know. It's history made new. It's history still so important. Because blood continues to spill and we certainly cannot try to cover that up.
