In English and Italian and one of the books in our #MaratonaAntirazzista. This is a stunning, moving ode to Black American resistance and resilience that manages to cover the history and enormity of Black experience in the USA in a very specific way, celebrating with pride the incredible strength and achievement of Black Americans, at the same time that it lifts all readers to raise their own voices for good.
