Growing up in Ferguson, Missouri, Stanley Andrisse began making poor decisions at a very young age. He started selling dope and was arrested for the first time at 14 years old. By his early 20s, hewas in front of a judge facing 20 years to life on drug-trafficking charges. In prison, while challenged with a strong desire for self-renewal, he faced an environment that was not conducive for transformative change. From poor institutional structure and policies to individual institutionalized thinking and behaviors, he battled on a daily basis to retain and maintain his humanity.

The realities of getting to the American dream- the pathway of horror when labelled.
Revisado: 06-11-22
The audio book that I used is a powerful narration by the author, Dr, Andrisse of his own arduous struggles fighting his inner devils along with combating the specially installed evil systems that are still in place in our racially discriminative society. It was as thrilling as watching a tennis match between Federer and Nadal.
This analogy may sound frivolous, but as a Nadal fan I see the entire stadium cheering Federer at any chance they get, but, Nadal usually is focused on his own game plan to win and yet be sympathetic and compassionate towards his opponents. At other times it is resounding testimony of many African American teens and young black men and their predicaments.
