Wake: The Hidden History of Women-Led Slave Revolts by Rebecca Hall

4.0
This is another important graphic novel to read. I wish that Hall had been able to find more information about the women lead slave revolts. The fact that this is her journey intermixed with history and her reimagining of historical events is powerful, but just highlights the fact that there is still so much to learn about history. The ending felt rushed, but I highly recommend.
Graphic: Racism, Slavery, and Death
Moderate: Sexual assault and Rape
