Book Reviews of Cain's Redemption: A Story of Hope and Transformation in America's Bloodiest Prison
Book Review: A Pack of Lies
Summary: 1 Stars
There are several half truths and ignored facts that permeate this book. I have been there and seen what the author is writing about. The 'trouble makers' referred to in the book are Black Panthers who are being punished for little more than asserting their human rights after being framed for a murder they did not commit. There is one man in particular that has been there since 1970 that is completely innocent but dos not have the means to 'buy' representation, so he just sits there and rots. There has to be a better solution to poverty and the lack of a credible mental health system in Louisiana than returning Black men to a state of contemporary slavery where they are controlled with Christianity and judged on what they have done and might do by fellow White Christians.
The inmates regularly told me, "I have a life sentence, but God has a better plan," meaning the judges on earth will be judged by the ultimate judge when their power on earth is null and void and they try to collect in the afterlife.
"How can man give me life and God give me life?"
America needs to awake to what has been done to 'others' in the name of God!!
