We Were Eight Years In Power: An American Tragedy
Ta-Nehisi Coates
Coates’ collection of essays, released in 2017, spans the Obama years, painting a picture of a galvanized Black America who enjoyed artistic, financial, social and psychic advantages only to recognize at the end of eight years that Trump’s election meant things were back to business as usual.
