I found this book at a flea market and was bummed when I couldn’t snag it! I ended up finding it on here and was beyond excited!

THE BLACK BOOK is a major statement on Black American social history, life and literary cultures, especially the history of pain, humiliations and erasure of the black people. This book shows aspects of black lives that we are not trained to see. The book takes the reader to the heart of black life in America by tracing black lives before and after a black person came to be associated with slavery. There are pictures, photographs, reports, notes, writings, and lives that tell us what we were not supposed to know or acknowledge: that the dehumanization of the black people was neither accidental nor sudden. The role played by Toni Morrison in the production of the book is huge. Morrison's two single page entries capture Morrison at her best. The Foreword is a synoptic account of what is included and what is not, and tells us that this is the book that every black person has written. Along with Preface, we see in this book the finest samples of her dark epiphanic writing--beautiful, frightening and yet persuasive at the same time.
