Book Review: "Color Me Dark"

Post by Bull J. Johnson »

Title of the book: "Color Me Dark" The Diary of Nellie Lee Love, The Migration North
Author: Patricia C. McKissack
Series: Dear America
Genres: Historical Fiction
Short summary of the story: This is about two black children living is 1919 and learning that it should be ok to love whatever skin your in. Sadly people back then like today do not understand that we are all equal.
Good point: I liked the meaning behind the story, which is that we are all created equal no matter what.
