Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A journalist's raw, first-person account of what his family endured after his eldest brother killed a man and was sentenced to life in prison.A journalist's raw, first-person account of what his family endured after his eldest brother killed a man and was sentenced to life in prison.At the age of nine, Issac J. Bailey saw his hero, his eldest brother, taken away in handcuffs, not to return from prison for thirty-two years. Bailey tells the story of their relationship and of his experience living in a family suffering guilt and shame. Drawing on sociological research as well as his expertise as a journalist, he seeks to answer the crucial question of why Moochie and many other young black men-including half of the ten boys in his own family-end up in the criminal justice system. What role did poverty, race, and faith play? What effect did living in the South, in the Bible Belt, have? And why is their experience understood as an acceptable trope for black men, while white people who commit crimes are never seen in this generalized way?My Brother Moochie provides a wide-ranging yet intensely intimate view of crime and incarceration in the United States, and the devastating effects on the incarcerated, their loved ones, their victims, and society as a whole. A rare first-person account of what one family endured when the eldest brother killed a man and was sentenced to life in prison.
