Book excerpt: Winner of the Christopher Award 2024 NPR Science Friday Best Summer Beach Reads 2024 Gotham Book Finalist 2024 NASW Science in Society Journalism Award Finalist 2024 PEN Hessell-Tiltman Prize Finalist 2024 New York City, 1929. A sanatorium, a deadly disease, and a dire nursing shortage. In the pre-antibiotic days when tuberculosis stirred people’s darkest fears, killing one in seven, white nurses at Sea View, New York’s largest municipal hospital, began quitting en masse. Desperate to avert a public health crisis, city officials summoned Black southern nurses, luring them with promises of good pay, a career, and an escape from the strictures of Jim Crow. But after arriving, they found themselves on an isolated hilltop in the remote borough of Staten Island, yet again confronting racism and consigned to a woefully understaffed sanatorium, dubbed “the pest house,” where it was said that “no one left alive.” Spanning the Great Depression and moving through World War II and beyond, this remarkable true story follows the intrepid young women known by their patients as the “Black Angels.” For twenty years, they risked their lives working under appalling conditions while caring for New York’s poorest residents, who languished in wards, waiting to die, or became guinea pigs for experimental surgeries and often deadly drugs. But despite their major role in desegregating the New York City hospital system—and their vital work in helping to find the cure for tuberculosis at Sea View—these nurses were completely erased from history. The Black Angels recovers the voices of these extraordinary women and puts them at the center of this riveting story, celebrating their legacy and spirit of survival.

Then their English teacher offers them a job on her mobile library, a three-wheel, two-seater bike. Angel can’t turn down the money and Isaiah is soon eager to be in such close quarters with Angel every afternoon. But life changes on May 31, 1921 when a vicious white mob storms the Black community of Greenwood, leaving the town destroyed and thousands of residents displaced. Only then, Isaiah, Angel, and their peers realize who their real enemies are.

Book excerpt: Uprooted from my comfort zone at about four to five years of age, I never got to experience a normal childhood. I was forced to live with a family member who treated me like next to nothing. Confused and seeking a way out of horrific conditions, I became acquainted with Jesus, and as the years passed me by, I learned that He was always a part of my life. No matter how dark things would get, He was always there to provide refuge. The day that Granny told me that I was everybody's black angel opened my young and still innocent eyes to the fact that I was hated by the one who was supposed to love me most. Not because I did anything wrong, but because I was favored and loved by God. Granny believed she had to break me the best she could, because she couldn't stop what God had growing inside of this young, powerful, and anointed vessel. This Black Angel was chosen. I was gifted. I was different. I was set aside for God's purposes at His appointed time. Granny did a number on me but she couldn't end what God had started.
