C'est pour les inoubliables. Ceux qui n'ont pas peur. Ceux qui sont invaincus.

Dans ce livre à la fois touchant et puissant, l'auteur à succès Kwame Alexander et l'illustrateur Kadir Nelson, récipiendaire de la médaille Caldecott, nous livrent une lettre d'amour mettant à l'honneur l'Amérique noire.

Dédié aux invaincus, aux rêveurs et aux survivants, ce poème nous ramène à une époque pas si lointaine de la nôtre, tout en soulignant la force et la bravoure de ceux qui continuent à affronter l'adversité jusqu'à aujourd'hui.

Grâce aux illustrations frappantes ainsi qu'au style d'écriture captivant de ce livre, les lecteurs découvriront le cran, la passion et la détermination des plus grands artistes, athlètes et activistes de l'histoire des Noirs. Une oeuvre inspirante, émouvante et tout simplement incontournable!
