This extraordinary work is a vital historical record and includes pivotal moments in the civil rights movement, such as the March on Washington and the Selma to Montgomery marches. It is also a nuanced journey into the ordinary, joyful, difficult lives of marginalized Black communities living within a deeply divided nation. It is a stark reminder of a journey that is ongoing and conveys with power and dignity the exhausting, endless struggle of being Black in white America.
