Can't Nothing Bring Me Down // REVIEW

Ida Keeling amazes me. I had never heard of her before, but I’m so glad I read this memoir/autobiography from her— her life was filled with challenges and grief and obstacles to overcome, yet here she is at over 100 years old chasing her passion of running (and setting records doing it)! This was a fun one to read and it gave me such great insight into what it was like for a Black woman to grow up over the last 100 years, facing opposition and resistance on so many fronts, yet constantly overcoming. So uplifting! (Thanks BookLook Bloggers for this one.)
