Panthers in the Hole by David Cénou, Bruno Cénou
4.0
Panthers In The Hole presents the stories of the Angola 3, and it does so with grace and compassion, solidly armed with facts.
Fully endorsed by Amnesty International and Robert Hillary King (one of the Angola 3), this story presents to us some of the many grave injustices committed by the American justice system. It also presents the torture that is solitary confinement, especially when used in the long term. The art used here is quite lovely, and does a good job of presenting the narrative. I did wish that there had been a bit more meat the the story, as this is only about 110 pages of graphic nonfiction. I also thought some of the transitions between scenes were a bit weak and hindered readability.
I would absolutely recommend reading this. The Angola 3 are a tragic tale, and we should all know about them. We can never know too much about issues of justice.
