I am not Henry Louis Gates Jr. biggest fan (he's said a few questionable things about Obama that I did not approve of) nevertheless I am a huge fan of his efforts to explore the history of African Americans. When I received "Life Upon the Shores" in the mail today I was super excited. I cannot wait until I have time to tackle such an enormous book but I am excited because of the richness of its contents. 500 pages of the history of our people, my people. If I find anything interesting I will be sure to dish.
