Our sonds teacher made him read this. He actually talked about it quite a bit and seemed to really learn alot about it's history.

I was pretty impressed that a 15 year old actually found it intruiging enough to WANT to read it. KUDOS to the required reading for school. Wish I could have found it used, but ho hum.

Mandatory school read. A bit dark in some topics, very real. Could stir up socio-political and theologic issues. Keep an open mind.

This was required reading for my daughter for high school.  She is not a big reader but she loved it!!!

This book was required for school, so I didn't exactly buy it for enjoyment reading. :)  However, it is a great resource for my class.  It arrived in perfect condition, and shipped quickly.

Required to read by school, wasn't something I would have chosen to read on my own time, and after having read it, I donated the book.  I suppose that it may be someone else's "cup of tea" but just not for me.

This was required reading for a course I took for school.  Interesting if you are interested in this subject matter.

I haven't read the whole book, but I read some because it's required for one of my classes. It has great information, it is just hard to follow when you just try to READ. You must also comprehend :)

As a retired teacher, I strongly recommend this book for reading on the high school level. This is an important subject  that should be considered for required reading.

this was required reading for class, unfortunately class schedule did allow for a thorough reading of the text.  I look forward to completing this text on my own.  will keep for future reference.

This was required reading for high school. My 15 yo son read it. He actually enjoyed it! I give it 5 stars because he read it and liked it enough to explain what he read. This is very unusual for my son. :-)

Do we really need a book this?  Did you experience the American election in 2016?  This book is painfully needed.  It can be read in about one hour.  I wish it was required reading in schools.  Read and stop being a mindless puppet.

Should be required reading in ANY school. Most schools don't even "speak" to African American Literature or History. Great selections from Great writers.

We studied this in my tenth grade English class this year.  Before reading it, several other teachers questioned whether it had enough literary merit  to warrant a unit on it.

It does.

I think it is comparable to Night, but it is about more recent events, which engages today's students.

I BUY MULTIPLES OF THIS BOOK TO GIVE AWAY.  YEARS AGO IT WAS REQUIRED READING OF ALL INCOMING FRESHMEN AT UNC - CHAPEL HILL.  I READ IT TO SEE WHAT ALL THE FUSS WAS ABOUT.  IT SHOULD BE REQUIRED READING FROM SIXTH GRADE FORWARD, WITH A COMPENTENCY TEST AT END OF GRADES NINE THROUGH 12!!!
