Anything that Jason Reynolds pens is gold. There was so much history in this book that I was never taught, names I never learned and sides of historical figures that were never revealed to me in any classroom. Ibram and Reynolds' work here is necessary when learning about the history of racism in the United States and how it impacts our present. I especially love how readable this book is, especially since it was made to be more accessible to younger readers. It definitely felt like it could be read by a wide audience without coming off as condescending. Would love to see if any schools would teach or discuss it.
