This is a heartfelt story that touches on the complexity of the relationship between blacks and whites just after emancipation. While emancipation occurred, many slaves had nowhere to go—leaving them stuck in the comfort only life they had ever known. Even amongst the hate and injustice, love was born—many types of love. Love born out of familiarity, out of true passion, and out of survival. Like Kindred Spirits does a beautiful job of exploring these many types of love. The book shows you just how far we have come, yet still leaves you questioning how and why we got there in the first place.
