I attempted to listen to this via audio book, and was unable to finish it. I may give reading a shot and see if I prefer that format.

George Floyd was murdered in fairly recent history, but this book is so well researched that it takes the reader all the way back to his family roots during times of slavery and sharecropping. I am so glad I read it. I came out of the experience with a better understanding of systemic racism and the conviction that we can never ever give up the fight for justice. George Floyd!
This educational novel was written to put light on the reasons why young adults drifted into the skin culture and its extreme right-wing tendencies in the 90ies Germany. Although it uses real events, it is very superficial, but I don‘t think the students will mind or even realize.
Grateful I got to hear Tananarive Due speak about her personal journey writing “The Reformatory” and her thoughts on Jim Crow horror, as well as the Salem Horror Festival‘s theme of “the horror within” as it applies to her work. Loved her terrifying & thought-provoking novel! #horror #racism #ghosts
