A Measure of Belonging: Twenty-One Writers of Color on the New American South by

5.0

These essays so beautifully and honestly reflected on the deep complexity of the south - the tendrils of injustice, subtle and explicit, as well as the deep richness and bounty and joy and beloved community. It’s helped me to reflect on my time here and embrace the nuance and that two things can be true at the same time, that I can hate it here and love it here and want so deeply good things for this place and people.
