This book shows which factors shape you while growing up, but also further on in life. Growth and succes depend on the actions of the person, their circumstances and the people around them. Based on that i found this an reflective and inspiring book, but it didnt succeed in keeping my attention. Maybe biographies arent my genre. Nevertheless it's a decent book and centainly worth reading.
Moderate: Racism and Police brutality
Minor: Bullying, Chronic illness, Death, Death of parent, Grief, Hate crime, Gun violence, Miscarriage, Murder, Pregnancy, Violence, and Xenophobia
