I've been wanting to read this memoir since last year and I'm glad I got to it now. It's an inspiring story of a Black woman who braved all odds to achieve accolades in her profession while also being an active part of the civil rights movement and many other defining moments in American history. The book is not an easy read because it's a bit dry and it also has mentions of many names I was unfamiliar with, which kinda made it boring to get through. The non chronological order also confused me a bit, especially because I was listening to the audiobook. But overall, this was an enlightening book about a pioneering woman who made it easier for many other woman of color to be able to choose journalism as their career, and helped diversify such an important and impactful field.
