I read Assata about 4 months ago, true the format was tight. I've only read it once so I don't know if this is in the first half or the second, but the thing that really touched me was when she was on the bus(or Train) and she began looking around at all the other Black Women, and wondered when "the day will come, so we can all take our wigs off", or something like that. It kind of reassured me that growing my perm out was the right thing to do.

My suggestion for September's book is:

"Good Hair", I forgot who the author is, but it's a young black woman. I read it right after Assata. It's the kind of book that's just a story, it's not ment to 'make you consider all racial issues of the world', or 'question your existence', or send you on a 'pilgramage'. Just a good story about famlily, love, and trust.

Even if it isn't 'chosen' you should still pick it up.

Peace and Blessings...L-E-X
