If I don't finish a book I only give it one star. The book had good quotes and fact based storytelling but it also hammered the same points on repeat a lot.

Also in cases where police were brutal towards Panthers the descriptions are specific and thorough, but in the only one case where the Panther involved likely incited the situation the whole scene is glossed over in a few pages and a huge chapter dedicated to his release. I had to use wikipedia to figure out what actually happened that night. It turned me off of the whole book, which had been awesome up to that point about sharing the facts even when they were unpleasant.
