emmarj 's review for:
Nzingha: Warrior Queen of Matamba, Angola, Africa, 1595
by Patricia McKissack
Boo! I was excited to read historical fiction about people that are not white but this is really just a pathetic attempt. The story itself is a mere 90 pages, the rest is historical notes and photos.
My biggest issue is that the author just barely brushes up against the idea that the slavery the people of Angola practice is different than the chattel slavery of the Portuguese but this is never really explained, not even in the notes.
