The intermix between the current timeline and the historical timeline was handled wonderfully. I was invested greatly in the ancestral stories which could easily become a book on their own.
The families of each of the main characters provided compelling reading due to their dynamics.
My only critique is that the book felt heavy-handed in each of the main characters' “flaw”. While greatly admiring the character of Dr. Roxane Bedford I had an abrupt stop toward the last part of the book when she confronts Ben Harris in his own home. It felt like the stereotypical “angry black woman” too often seen in media/literature.
There is much more “good” in this book than not, asking the reader to confront those things that need to be confronted. The problem with the book is the same that remains in society - how to confront issues in a way that makes change without creating more fractures, and in some cases, pulling people further apart.
Do I recommend the read? Yes. It’s an eye-opening read for some, a reminder for a few, and a call to continue the fight for others.… (mais)
