Rezension(3): "〈a href=http://www.audiofilemagazine.com target=_blank〉〈img src=https://images.contentreserve.com/audiofile_logo.jpg alt=AudioFile Magazine border=0 /〉〈/a〉:Narrating her own work, Patrisse Khan-Cullors shares the salient moments of her life that led her to become a founder of Black Lives Matter and explains why a movement born of equality and equity is so needed and so hated in today's world. She explores the helplessness she has felt in the face of her brother's mental health problems, the community and mentors that strengthen her, and the young lives too often extinguished. As narrator, she does reasonably well. Her voice fluctuates between a strong and weak delivery, with a flat element in some passages that sounds empty even if her words indicate otherwise. However, the pain, frustration, and joy in other passages emblazon each word she utters. L.E. � AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine"
