			I am on the library waiting list for Barracoon: The Story of the Last Slave by Zora Neale Hurston.   
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	Brilliantly illuminates the horror and injustices of slavery as it tells the true story of one of the last-known survivors of the Atlantic slave trade—abducted from Africa on the last "Black Cargo" ship to arrive in the United States. I heard about it on NPR and I am excited to get it. I haven't read for pleasure (which I sorely miss) since starting school in January. I am hoping I can make time for it.  |
