The 1619 Project: A New Origin Story by Nikole Hannah-Jones
challenging
informative
medium-paced
5.0
This was an artistic endeavor as well as a literary achievement. However, although I read the whole book, I did not come across the information that made people lose their ever lovin' minds. What exactly is so radical about this book? The information in this book can be found in multiple other sources. I actually found the bits on music one of the most fascinating as it described the ambivalence of consumers and creators surrounding musical roots.
