A review by sweetpeachboy
Wake: The Hidden History of Women-Led Slave Revolts by Rebecca Hall

4.0

really respect this author's dedication to telling stories long forgotten, and often incomplete. with this graphic novel being part memoir, she illustrates how many hurdles she had to jump thru in order to extract these pieces of history, and of the emotional turmoil she experienced during her research. those pages were illuminating in their own right, but their placements in this novel felt a bit disruptive. still a solid book, and i'm certain she did the best she could with the archives available to her.
