Yet another book I need to reread. Black Resistance takes on so many varied and important forms, and each chapter in this book (including the introduction and post script) stoked the fire in my belly. Like so many books that highlight black pain and perseverance, the stories included make me weep with despair and rejoice in triumph. Our history in the US may seem sad and hopeless, but we have always used whatever means we could to fight for justice. We will continues to resist with protection, force, flight, and joy. While America may want to go back, I refuse.
