This book contains an imperative conversation about shame from one's family owning slaves and anger from one's family owned by owners. The exchange occurs between an African-American woman (a descendant of slaves who wrote a book with her sister to resolve their anger and to bring visibility to their enslaved ancestors and African American History) and a European-American man who learns much to his shame and guilt, his family owned slaves. In this book, Christopher Desloge brings visibility to his ancestors' slaves and Theresa Delsoin's awakens her enslaved ancestors which add to the volumes of African-American History. It is fascinating to see their conversation turn spiritual and focus on purpose.
