We, the people, must redeem
The land, the mines, the plants, the rivers.
The mountains and the endless plain—
All, all the stretch of these great green states—
And make America again!

Langston Hughes

While Black people are disproportionately dying & others demand privilege to ignore this fact & while people are protesting the murder of another Black person by police, I think of the centuries-long struggle for recognition of Black humanity which this book tells tells a part.
