The first chapter of Yesterday Is History by Kosoko Jackson has me hooked. It starts with the King of Ireland's widow who is lamenting her loss and then turns into a story of the Black Panther Party's rich history in Oakland, California. The narrator to this audiobook was [Ron Butler], and I found his voice to be effective in capturing the emotions of all the characters. His voice also matched the speaker's tone very well.
The narrator, Ron Butler, brings to the story's narration an ability to communicate not only Kosoko's feelings and thoughts but also his motivation to demonstrate that yesterday is history. The author's perspective of racism is evident in the way Ron comes across as a man who will not tolerate prejudice and ignorance.
