redbirdwings 's review for:

The Black Cabinet: The Untold Story of African Americans and Politics During the Age of Roosevelt by Jill Watts

5.0

---

This is an excellent resource on a time in history with an impressive and courageous group of individuals who sought to even the odds in Washington D.C. by representing African Americans on a national level. The tragedy that such a group ever ended proves that we still have a long way to go.

I received a free copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
