I'm finished with the first chapter.
It's worth it. I would put it to the top of the list.
As someone who wasn't alive during this time, I can't imagine what it was like. I've only heard my parents stories.
Neither side of my family were slave owners and I was never taught or exposed to this type of racism. I can see why my mom said that she used to cry and beg not to go to school. And my parents lived in Louisiana. I can't imagine being in MS or AL during this time.
The fact that the Klan still exists is disgusting. But the fact that the police and other government officials were in on it during this time are really disgusting. And it took until 1998 for MS to bring this to trial.
Thanks L.A..... I won't sleeping tonight. I'll be reading this all night.
