As a white woman, raised in the American south, I know I can't fully understand what non-white people must endure due to people's ignorance, stupidity, hatred, idiocy, etc. I am thankful that authors like Brendan Slocumb write novels like The Violin Conspiracy to help me understand, so I can do better and help others do better.
P.S. JD Jackson can narrate any audiobook ever. Love his voice and narration skills!

There are many moments when the main character encounters racism and racist people. All incidents - big and small - are horrible. ***But most vivid is a flashback scene that describes Ray’s great-great-grandfather’s experience as an enslaved person. IT IS VERY DETAILED AND VERY HORRIFYING. HSP’s and all others be warned. It is necessary for the plot, but it is hard***jpitts's review against another edition
