Review: Get this book! - “Black AF History” is a phenomenal, necessary, and wildly entertaining reckoning. Michael Harriot combines deep historical research with a uniquely engaging (and hilarious) voice to tell the story of America as it truly happened, not as it’s been mythologized. This book educated me, enraged me, inspired me, and made me laugh out loud. It’s the defiant, unflinching, and brilliant history lesson we all need. An instant classic.
Review: This book is great - Great and informative while written in a way that keeps you interested. It’s definitely not your boring history books.

Black AF History is an absolute powerhouse from start to finish. Bell Hooks’ storytelling is deeply personal yet profoundly universal—she unpacks generational trauma, resilience, and Pride with a voice that’s raw, honest, and illuminating. What I loved most: • Authentic storytelling: Hooks shares intimate family memories alongside broader historical context—her vivid recollections made me feel like I was right there with her. • Educational yet engaging: This isn’t just a memoir—it’s a lesson in American history through the lens of Black experience, told with clarity and purpose. • Emotional impact: I laughed, I teared up, and I reflected deeply on my own family history and identity. Whether you’re already familiar with Hooks or discovering her for the first time, this book is a vital read—rich in wisdom, warmth, and an unsparing truth about Black America.
