A review by thebakersbooks
Barracoon: Adapted for Young Readers by Ibram X. Kendi, Zora Neale Hurston

emotional informative sad fast-paced

4.5

Well told, well recorded. Excited to read the original (non-kids') version once my library acquires it because I don't love how much Kendi inserted his voice into this reinterpretation, including his *personal preference* for capitalizing 'white' (as in white people) in addition to Black. Since 'Black' wasn't a term used in the book, there was just a lot of capital-W whiteness going on.
