Review
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. A great survey of police brutalityBy Darrell CaldwellWesley puts together a wide and expansive treatment of the social tragedy of one aspect of systemic racism in our country.His case is built before the bench of the reader in fairly chronological order. The core event was the protest and outrage ofthe killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson; Missouri. Ferguson then galvanized the Black Lives Matter movement.Mr. Lowery and his fellow journalists were awarded the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for National Reporting for Washington Post's coverage of police shootings. By the way; one can not miss Mr. Lowery's impassioned and yet objective journalism that is informed by his deeply personal Christian faith.3 of 4 people found the following review helpful. A must read and take notes because the statistics are mind blowingBy JoséA real page turner. Even after having fallowed many of these stories on the national media stage; the actual unfiltered accounts from those on the ground filled many holes in my understanding of what is going in our great nation today.The book is a great discussion on the aggregated effect that the way news media covers police shooting; the sole focus on the victims' actions or immediate villinization of the victim; the over policing of poor; black; and brown communities; the denial of many; who haven't been forced to live this oppressive life; and more have had in the movement for police reform. I would highly recommend reading it.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Must read!!By Amy BGreat book; great author. I learned a lot while reading this. Wesley has a great writing style; an easy and understandable read. I also felt the feelings he had when describing his personal struggles in the book. Keep up the great work!
