A Calamity of Souls

Wow! This was a good and tough book. It is about a black man accused of murdering an affluent older white couple in the 1960 in Virginia. I started it just before Juneteenth. I was embarrassed that this passed me by without any acknowledgment. Now I am twice as embarrassed.

As a white guy myself, I think author David Baldacci does a good job as another white guy describing what blacks went through back in the 60’s. I hope we are doing better today. I know we can do better tomorrow.
