Holy Ground by Catherine Coleman Flowers is a set of essays on climate change that is unlike any work that I have ever ready on this topic. Ms. Flowers brings a unique and incredibly important missing perspective to this discussion, the perspective of the impact of climate change on Black rural communities. I learned so much reading this collection of essays and I highly recommend this important book. So much of the discourse on climate change comes from a privileged perspective. I sincerely hope that this impactful piece of work from the founder of the Center for Rural Enterprise and Environmental Justice will become a fixture in curriculums on climate change. This book is not just about climate change, it is about climate justice. Please read this book!

Thank you to NetGalley and Spiegel & Grau for an advanced reader copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
