Freedom's Promise

"The book’s widely spaced lines of text, informative sidebars, and well-chosen archival photos look attractive, while the short sentences and interesting details make the text quite readable. An inviting volume from the Freedom’s Promise series."
Booklist, April 1, 2019 (Blacks in Paris: African American Culture in Europe)
