Uffda. Mamie Till's pure strength and dedication to her son is moving. A kind of strength I hope to be able to channel a mere iota of at some point in my life
A wonderful book from an incredible person. Provides an eye opening look into all the challenges victims face in seeking justice for the harm done to them. It is maddening how damn difficult we make it for people to be heard and respected and believed. The share of the burden we place on survivors is truly unfair. This book highlights how hard the journey towards healing and even just surviving is and if it doesn't make you see changes are needed, then re read the book until you do. Also a big middle finger to Brock Turner and his indignant invalidation of the harm he caused and the things he took.
Cannot recommend this book enough. Especially for anyone who has taken a different path in life than their family of origin, despite the difficulty in doing so. Probably going to to reread this now
