Crazy as Hell Book

The Best Little Guide to Black History

A refreshing, insightful, sacrilegious take on African American history, Crazy as Hell explores the site of America’s greatest contradictions. The notables of this book are the runaways and the rebels, the badass and funky, the activists and the inmates - from Harriet Tubman, Nina Simone, and Muhammad Ali to B’rer Rabbit, Single Mamas, and Wakandans - but are they crazy as hell, or do they simply defy the expectations designated for being Black in America?
