Wake: The Hidden History of Women-Led Slave Revolts by Rebecca Hall

challenging dark hopeful informative reflective sad slow-paced

4.0

I didn’t like the illustrations, and the layout of some of the pages made the words difficult to follow. But overall, it was both heartbreaking and frustrating to read about lost history and how it repeats itself today in racist patriarchy.
