I was a bit disappointed with this book. I expected more historical context, but it felt more like personal narratives without much grounding. Maybe I just had different expectations. Still, some parts were interesting.

Decent Read, but Lacking Structure
While I found the content meaningful, I felt the organization of the book could use some work. Some topics seemed to drift, making it hard to follow at times. Still, it's worth the read if you're passionate about understanding Black traditions.
