One More River TO Cross...,
By A Customer
This review is from: Twelve Black Americans (One More River To Cross) (Paperback)
One More River to Cross, by Jim Haskins, portrays the perseverance and dignity represented by hard working people who had to overcome many obstacles. It is a biography of twelve black Americans who fought to make a difference and tried to change the world to make it fair and equal. They all excelled in many different areas like, art, science, politics, sports, astronomy etc. Even though they did different things, they shared the same goal of making a difference and contribution to end segregation and racism. They all went through very difficult moments due to how they were treated, but they were all determined to change their lifestyles. This book is great, since it teaches you of how hard life was for blacks and how they managed to change it, although it took them a long time. I really liked it, and it made me think and realize all they went through and how they should really be remembered for what they did.
