A review by thebooklender
Black History in Its Own Words by Ron Wimberly

4.0

A deceptively simple book - each page has a brief introduction to a significant figure from Black history accompanied by a quote and an illustration of that person. Inspiring and striking, if occasionally esoteric - and I don't mean that in a bad way. I didn't quite get the relevance of all the quotes on first reading, but they have a combined effect like poetry, washing over you, creating a feeling rather than a meaning.
