mattycakesbooks 's review for:
The Souls of Black Folk
by W.E.B. Du Bois
"On the Coming of John" is one of the bleakest and best essays I've ever read. There are some slower essays in the book, but they're made up for by either illuminating historical essays like "Of the Dawn of Freedom," or painful personal essays like "Of the Passing of the First-Born."
I picked this up post 2016-election because I was feeling like maybe I hadn't been doing my due diligence as a white dude to get woke. I have a long way to go, but this is a good start.
