Richard Wright was born on September 4, 1908, in Roxie, Mississippi, and published his first short story at the age of 16. Later, he found employment with the Federal Writers Project and received critical acclaim for Uncle Tom's Children, a collection of four stories. He’s well known for the 1940 bestseller Native Son and his 1945 autobiography Black Boy. Wright died in Paris, France, on November 28, 1960.

I was born in 1974,but ever since I read this book,I have told people, "If you want to know or get a proper idea of my life and experiences, read Black Boy". I honestly feel my life has mirrored the life and experiences of Mr.Wright. I am.haopy and proud to find am.not alone in this.

[@iriebernard2670]

me and the rest of the students in my class at scihigh new orleans really like this book and think it really brings across a strong point

[@ella_goddess5690]

For all you juniors reading this. Many people look to black panther as a sigh of cultural achievement but it’s literally a marvel movie who made millions of dollars because they pandered to blacks claiming it was the best thing since slice bread. Enjoy Richard Wright and appreciate true art achievement.

22:32-32:52 tells about a kitten. I read that as a standalone story called “The Kitten” in middle school. That poor kitten just needed love, but sadly, it chose the wrong people to ask to care for it, and Richard was so naughty that day!

If you want to speed up the listening process you can speed up the play speed .25 at a time, and listen for like 10 minutes you’ll get use to the speed and it sounds normal then when u speed up more it won’t sound fast.

You have to take one thing into consideration. Not only native speakers are listening to this audiobook. I come from Poland and for me it is read at the best pace. I would like to thank for the possiblity to have contact with one of the best American writers read by such a good lecturer.

[@johntyler7882]

pat bran speed up the time

[@magorzatamichalak9222]

In fact it is easy to regulate the speed, isn't it? (settings on the right).

[@magorzatamichalak9222]

I agree, it is what I have said. For the foreigners it is read perfectly well. :-) I agree again: the only good white person is the one with brain..., I have been living in a country without any racism and slavery history. It doesn't matter whether you are green, Purple, pink or silver - I simply don't understand it. Take care! By the way: 'Our newest brain, our Homo sapien's brain, our neocortex, corresponds with the "what" level".
