Summary:
A picture book in verse that threads together past and present to explore the legacy of slavery during a classroom lesson.
From the fireside tales in an African village, through the unspeakable passage across the Atlantic, to the backbreaking work in the fields of the South, this is a
story
of a people's struggle and strength, horror and hope. This is the
story
of
American
slavery, a
story
that needs to be told and understood by all of us. A testament to the resilience of the African
American
community, this book honors what has been and envisions what is to be.
Audience:
