It's time to nominate for June's group read held by Leona. The Theme she chose is Autobiography. There are so many African American autobiographies that can be selected. This should be good. Post your nomination below!

Oh Maya I think I want to second your book. That's seems really interesting. I've also never read The Autobiography of Malcolm X. No nomination from me. I think I'll be happy if I read any of these books chosen.

Anastasia Kinderman | 942 comments I've read Slave through at least twice. It is really eye-opening, especially when it comes to racism outside of the U.S.
