Barracoon: Adapted for Young Readers by Ibram X. Kendi, Zora Neale Hurston
dark
emotional
informative
sad
tense
fast-paced
5.0
I think adaptation was well-done. For one, it cuts the filler and the many many prefaces of the original Barracoon.
The Transatlantic HUMAN trade and other enslavement practices are explained so simply here. This is meant for children, but it works for anyone to get the gist of his story.
But Kossula's story is still the same heartbreaking sadness as it is in any format.
