Deava’s Notes & Highlights

Book cover for Lose Your Mother: A Journey Along the Atlantic Slave Route
Lose Your Mother: A Journey Along the Atlantic Slave Route by Saidiya Hartman
5 highlights
I was black and a history of terror had produced that identity. Terror was “captivity without the possibility of flight,” inescapable violence, precarious life.
