Probably my favorite book of the year. You wouldn't think a reflection on how the US understands its own history of slavery would be a total page-turner, but the way the author set it up as a travelogue of historical sites keeps things really descriptive and conversational. And you can tell he's a poet. Really amazingly done.

Thoughtfully framed, well-narrated, personal yet very relatable, this book is a great entry in the Rethinking American Racism canon. I hope it inspires a lot more ways/instances of sharing the history of slavery in the US.
