His Name Is George Floyd: One Man's Life and the Struggle for Racial Justice by Robert Samuels, Toluse Olorunnipa

4.0

This book won the Pulitzer Prize and rightly so. It is the kind of compassionate story that is so rare for Black men who are victims of police brutality to get - a retelling of his life with all its flaws and beauty. It's the story of the man who ignited the 2020 racial justice uprising and what his life really was like. In so many ways, it's a truly American story - it has football and promise, affordable housing, addiction, family, friendships, new starts, and everything in between.
