My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I am embarrassed to say that I had never heard of Thomas Smallwood, a Black man who helped hundreds of enslaved people flee north bu after reading his story in Flee North: A Forgotton Hero and the Fight for Freedom in Slavery's Borderland I will nevr forget his story. This is thought provoking and easily read book.

The Prophets by Robert Jones Jr. My rating: 5 of 5 stars This is a deeply moving story of love, power and betrayal set in the deep south pre-civil war. The atrocities of plantation life juxtaposed with the beauty of the love shared by two young enslaved men was stunning. Powerful writing about life in and around a place called Empty.
