This book is such an important read, but also a heavy and eye-opening one. Lisa Sharon Harper walks through the story of her ancestors and how slavery and racial hierarchy effected each generation. Story connects us to her family and what they went through. We see how different branches of her family are treated differently for a variety of reasons including how they look, where they live, what the laws are at the time and how they are respected/treated. At the end she gathers everything together to share her look at what we need to do to "repair what race broke in our country." While she comes with a Christian background, I feel that this book is for anyone who wants to learn more and take a hard look at how we got where we are. This book is not something that you can read in one sitting, but a slow read that you wrestle with as you process it. I am thankful to Lisa for her willingness to share her family's story and to give insight to working towards some sort of repair.
