<strong>Life altering read</strong>
You may think you know the story from having seen the movie. You really really don’t.
The statistics alone make this a meaningful read. The insight into the shared trauma of black America is staggering.
Both a data driven book and a beautifully crafted narrative of lives lost and reclaimed from the very broken justice system, this is a book you feel deeply and will think about for a long time after putting it down.
