The Three Mothers: How the Mothers of Martin Luther King, Jr., Malcolm X, and James Baldwin Shaped a Nation by Anna Malaika Tubbs

4.0

I was very interested in the lives of these women and wish more people were taught about the ways that the women of esteemed men shaped their journeys. I understand the need for historical context here to show the "other" of Louise, Alberta, and Berdis but sometimes it felt more like a discussion of American history than these women-- the latter half of the book with more life details centralized on their contributions was much more engaging for me.
