Towers Falling
by Jewell Parker Rhodes
‘Towers Falling’ by Jewell Powell Rhodes. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
.
‘Towers Falling’ is an impactful story about a young girl named Dejá who learns what it means to look past her own misfortunes in order to understand how the past has shaped her current circumstances. The novel reflects on the fifteenth anniversary of 9/11 and the importance of history, tolerance and acceptance. As someone who remembers 9/11, Dejá does not and does not understand its significance since it happened before she was even born. Her perseverance and acknowledgement of understanding the past really draws home the importance of history through a modern lens.
