A Long Time Coming: A Lyrical Biography of Race in America from Ona Judge to Barack Obama
by Ray Anthony Shepard
informative
inspiring
fast-paced
A biography in verse that follows 6 different people throughout the course of America, focusing on race. I enjoyed the way this was presented, as it felt accessible and included a lot of information. The timeline aspect I thought was really handy, especially all of the information provided at the end of the book. I could definitely see this being used in history classrooms, as it would be a text that could supplement various parts of American history.
