Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The myth of Black boys being inherently irredeemable is a historical fact and still reifies in the practices and outcomes within American criminal legal systems without compunction or abatement. Black Boys are fixed as something unchildlike, and their humanity is disregarded when encounteri…ng the American criminal legal system. Since the days of Richard Wright's youth, as he recounts, "The white South said it knew 'niggers', and I was what the white South called a 'nigger'. Well, the white South had never known me-never known what I thought, what I felt." A Beautiful Pain is the story of one Black boy's misguided quest for identity and belonging while navigating through atypical childhood adversities, i.e., poverty, physical and gun violence, social decay and rampant drug use, racially disparate and aggressive policing, and other forms of institutional neglect in the 1980s. At sixteen, Damon Venable, when encountering the New Jersey criminal legal system, which cared less about what he thought and felt or what made him into a violent juvenile offender, was sentenced to fifty years to life in prison. This book is a coming-of-age story about hope, struggle, and willpower in the face of sheer hopelessness and inhumane suffering inside the carceral spaces of America. It is a story highlighting the power of choice and reclaiming one's dignity and agency despite the stigma and treatment of being irredeemable; and, how one's mindset can be re-tuned to shape a positive life trajectory. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
