Black Detroit: A People's History of Self-Determination by Herb Boyd

informative slow-paced

5.0

If you're a Detroiter, born and raised, or a transplant, this is a must-read. I learned so much. Boyd does an incredible job of giving a scope of the history of Detroit through the Black lens. While I will say that it felt like the more recent history could have had more time to breathe and dive deep, this was a very well-written history of Detroit.
