Alkaid

I didn't know much about this book going into it, but heard about it on a podcast I like (Ghosted by Roz Hernandez). I honestly wasn't expecting so much history, a subject I love. Some names were unfamiliar to me (like the Quaker), so I had fun learning about them. Almost finished the book in one sitting; it was hard to step away.

Highly recommend this to folx who aren't as well versed in Black history, though Darnell's story is just as enthralling. And I felt so frustrated for him, learning about his struggles.
