to charges brought against my color with no chance of defense. We
should all be dead.”

…showed last 75 words of 663 total…must have felt and Maya Angelou shows this in an extra-ordinary way.
Most people have certain knowledge of the prejudice that exists, but this book takes it one step further. Seeing this child being broken down at several occassions and realising the heart it takes to build up strength and stamina to keep on going, makes you wonder. How many more childhoods must be shattered before people take action against the oppression and mindless violence?
