Janette
Janette is on page 31 of 320 of Rebuild the Dream
Fav quote: "It took mass participation and creativity to move the country onto safer ground. That spirit of engagement and commitment is needed now, more than ever, to resume the forward motion.

The campaign's galvanizing slogan was never, 'Yes, HE Can.'

It was always, 'Yes, WE Can.'

And working together, we still can."

I am loving this book so far! Thank you Mr. Jones!

Rebuild the Dream

Janette
Janette is on page 111 of 453 of Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance
Loving this book, favorite quote so far: "What was she asking of me, then? Determination mostly. The determination to push against whatever power kept her stooped instead of standing straight. The determination to resist the easy or expedient. You might be locked into a world not of your own making, her eyes said, but you still have a claim on how it is shaped. You still have responsibilities."

easy reading so far which is nice, some books addressing topics like these can be dense and hard to get through
