When They Call You a Terrorist (Young Adult Edition): A Story of Black Lives Matter and the Power to Change the World by asha bandele, Patrisse Khan-Cullors

dark emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective sad tense medium-paced

4.25

Raw. Emotional. Very personal. Very close to home for me on a lot of issues. I can't really sum up my feelings for this one. It was really heavy but VERY good, very well done, and gave me hope for the future.
