We are so incredibly excited to announce the wonderful collaboration between Ibram X. Kendi and Jazzmen Lee-Johnson in order to create a version of Barracoon for middle-grade readers! Our hope in making Cudjo’s story more accessible to different kinds of readers is so his story will never be forgotten nor dismissed.
