I think by today’s standards that it’s not anything revolutionary, it’s not a REMARKABLE read. That being said, I’m sure it was a much needed, powerful read when it was released. I think it should be read by middle school/high school aged kids.

also why did EVERYONE have that history teacher? No experience is unique.
