Notes of a Native Son by James Baldwin

GR summary:
Since its original publication in 1955, this first nonfiction collection of essays by James Baldwin remains an American classic. His impassioned essays on life in Harlem, the protest novel, movies, and African Americans abroad are as powerful today as when they were first written.

I read this for my 2018 Topic Discard Challenge, a book with a two-letter word in the title. This was a great book and very well written. The essays are compelling and engaging.
