Same Kind of Different As Me by Ron Hall and Denver Moore.
This true story about Modern-day American slavery was met by rave reviews when it was first released in 2008 and has been called a "life changer" by many. It is in keeping with our current theme of books on people of color and writings in dialect, and since it is narrated by the actual main characters, it is apparently equally moving in the audio and written format (for those interested in trying out different ways of experiencing literature). Check it out and respond with opinions/suggestions.
