Description du livre
This book examines the criminalization of Black men and the need for penal system reform that allows for their mental, physical, financial, and emotional rehabilitation. Told through the lens of a former US Air Force veteran facing a history of trauma throughout childhood and into adulthood, it portrays widespread experiences Black males face as early as preschool, including unwarranted criminalization, psychiatric hospitalizations, and eventual incarceration. Ideal for practitioners working with Black men in schools, detention facilities, and within social advocacy groups, this book provides recommendations on how to change the narrative of incarcerated Black males in America to help them survive and thrive outside of prison.
