Four Hundred Souls: A Community History of African America, 1619-2019 by Ibram X. Kendi

challenging dark emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective sad medium-paced

5.0

A history of the 400 years of of African American history as told by nearly 100 black writers. Each author was given a 5 year period to write an essay about and what results is a moving and powerful yet informative living history of the systemic racism America has been built on. Each section also features beautiful poetry. The most important book you’ll read all year.
