Kindred

This should be required reading in high school. I feel like if teachers used material like this, students would be a lot more engaged. It’s a fascinating blend of genres and such an interesting perspective with which she examines slavery. Very immersive and horrifying, but it really humanizes the past. Would highly recommend and am eager to read more from Butler’s backlist.

I just finished reading 'Kindred' after spotting it on your stream. Excellent book. Thanks for sharing it.
I actually did have this assigned in school which lead to me loving to read due to falling in love with this book!
It was required for American lit junior year of high school by Baltimore County Public Schools.
I read it in high school, and just read it again with fresh perspective. It’s a hard book, but important.
