Description

The 1619 Project: Born on the Water tells the powerful story of how slavery shaped American identity. A young student discovers that her family's history stretches back to 1619, when their ancestors were forcibly brought to America by slave traders.

Through verse and striking illustrations, this book explores the resilience and hope of those who survived against incredible odds. The author and illustrator reveal a pathway for readers to reflect on the origins of American identity and the ongoing struggle for justice and equality.

This poignant picture book is a worthwhile read for anyone looking to understand the complex history of America and its impact on the present day.
