"How we talk about the past has the power to change our future."
"Some of our country's most brutal stories are hidden in plain view--in places you might pass on the way to school, holidays you might celebrate with your family, or entire neighborhoods you might visit. In this book, embark on an unforgettable tour of these monuments and landmarks that have been forever changed by the legacy of American slavery."
"With powerful testimonies of people still alive today, personal stories from the author, and careful research, learn how memory and history can help make sense of our present, and give us all hope for our future."--from the jacket.
