This will be our class set of books so students will read the story with me as a teacher, whilst also studying some of the reasons that so many African American men can be found in our U.S. prisons. I want them to be informed, but more than that I want my students to be inspired by what they can achieve with their lives, and how we can all learn from this story, how to stand up for people when we see a wrong has been committed against them. The Black Lives Matter movement means my students are living through history instead of studying it. I want them to understand in more depth, some of the inequalities people have faced, through this powerful true story. The books will be used with all my students, year in year out.
