Description
"This inspirational memoir serves as a call to action from prison reform activist Yusef Salaam, of the Exonerated Five, that will inspire ... to turn our stories into tools for change in the pursuit of racial justice ... No one's life is the sum of the worst things that happened to them, and during Yusef Salaam's seven years of wrongful incarceration as one of the Central Park Five, he grew from child to man, and gained a spiritual perspective on life ... [and] channeled his energy and pain into something positive, not just for himself but for other marginalized people and communities"--,Provided by publisher.
