6/27/2023 0 Comments Punching the air ibi zoboi![]() ![]() ![]() This book with it’s beautiful prose is a must read for many of our youth. This book is a reminder to not let the system win. Even in the past few months, as defunding for police institutions due to their inherent racism has risen drastically, we are reminded there is much work to be done. Researching it and then watching the Netflix series was a painful reminder of how damaged our justice systems are. I remember taking an interest in the Central Park Jogger case early last year. This book is a reminder that a teenager pays the price of actions he did not commit simply because of the colour of his skin. In a time where injustice against Black people is being called out and the people are demanding change now more than ever before, this book is a stark reminder of the lives that are being ruined. THIS WILL STAY WITH ME FOR YEARS TO COME. ![]()
