I have a decent background on the history of Black Panthers, so it might be a better book for those looking for an introduction, but I also had an issue with the writing. On a sentence-by-sentence level it was perfectly fine, but the structure was all over the place and needlessly confusing. I wanted it to be more cohesive, and with a stronger storytelling element. 

It did spark an interest in reading more about Afeni Shakur, so I look forward to that!
