5.0

I cannot say enough how much I loved this book. It was packed full of information and history about the lives of these three women and the men they raised. While there was enough information for a textbook, it read like a novel.

Anna Malaika Tubbs wrote truthfully but with grace. There was a desire for understanding and not just reporting of the facts. She presented stories but also infused each story with deeper meaning by giving it context and explaining the history.
