RP @blackgirlthatreads. I purchased this book back in 2017 and never got around to it, but something made me pick it up the other day and I haven’t been able to put it down since.
...
It’s not often that we hear the stories of resistance of those who were once enslaved. And it’s even more uncommon for us the hear their love stories. This one is tearing me to pieces because of the endless way so many pursued their loves despite the situations they faced.
...
You’ll come across a man from Virginia that spent 17 years searching for his wife. A Georgia couple that set sail for England with federal troops trailing behind. A young woman that is delivered to her fiancé in a wooden chest after several hours on a steamboat. And so many more.
