I half read/half listened - because the audio is read by Sandra herself but the book contains the pictures and notes. I learned from her story and her co-author helped her structure her narrative in a compelling way. I particularly appreciated her honesty and analysis on attempting to understand being black through the lens of American racism/classim/colorism. Her story is inspiring and ongoing. Have an ELL group reading this story for lit circles now and it's generating amazing conversation and connections. Powerful stuff.
