Wake: The Hidden History of Women-Led Slave Revolts
by Rebecca Hall
Wake is part memoir and part historical events. Rebecca Hall is a professor doing research on women leading slave revolts. It depicts her struggles and road blocks in trying to find this information whether security is preventing her from going into the archives to find the truth or because past historians didn't deem some things as necessary to write down. I think putting this type of content in a graphic novel is great because it's easy to read through and you still learn from it. I actually learned a lot from this novel, It's full of a lot of emotion from tears and rage as we learn about the women fighting for their lives. I think this is an important graphic novel and would definitely recommend people to check this one out.
