Cuz: The Life and Times of Michael A. by Danielle S. Allen

5.0

One of the best and most important books I’ve read in a long time. Allen’s clear story about her cousin’s and her own upbringing was a window into a world that I have not entered. But, I also found that the more I learn, the more I was drawn in to Michael’s story. It makes one pay attention to the criminal justice system, which can so easily be hidden away from regular society, from those whose family members are not directly affected by this.
