I’ve never set foot on American soil and I’m particularly not fascinated by the idea of a Green Card that so many Kenyans spend a lifetime pursuing.
A system that is obsessed with mass incarcerations and the death penalty, especially when the accused persons come from minority groups.
From the handful of books that I have read this year, Just Mercy: A Story of Justice and Redemption by American lawyer, social justice activist and author Bryan Stevenson is by far the best by my fastidious standards.
I love books and I read a lot, but I’m also a very pesky and hard to please reader. I will only pick up a book when I’m sure that the storyline is worth the paper it’s printed on. So when I rate a book that highly, it definitely is a compelling read.
