A review by wellmeetinspring
The Mis-Education of the Negro by Carter G. Woodson

3.0

The thing about Classics is that it's usually not groundbreaking for me. It's most likely because that these amazing stories are shared many times over and over again in numerous different ways before I could get my hands on or even know about the original piece, I eventually become desensitized. I enjoyed this book and it is a piece of art that everyone should read but what I got from it wasn't mainly from the text, but the history of the book. From what the story has given me, I felt as if I already knew everything due to garnering the information from vast sources throughout my life, but the time that this book was published...the man whom wrote it! That's what made this book special to me. Just seeing the title and 1933, my heart flutters! Spectacular.
