Martínez's art really amplifies the story and helps the book come alive. The way he is able to capture emotion, especially in the sections about the author, takes the story from abstract to personal. This book is not simply a research project, it is the story of people's lives - a story that fiercely resists the dehumanization and commodification of Black people.
Overall, this book is an excellent example of scholar activism and I look forward to reading more of Dr. Hall's work in the future.
