Book Reviews of Journey to Justice
Book Review: A good look at the way things are
Summary: 5 Stars
I just noticed my copy of this book in my library and decided to write a belated review. This book has nothing to do with OJ, it was merely the publicity around OJ that made a bestseller possible for Cochran.
Regardless of how you feel about him, it is impossible to come away from this look into the treatment of minorities in LA without a new perspective.
Whenever a person of color is stopped at a red light in a surburban town just because he is in the wrong place at the right time, Cochran's themes resonate.
Watching the news in the last few days, the indiscriminate beatings at the hands of professionals who are trained in the art of restraint makes Cochran's book a must read for anyone whose interest in our country runs beyond blaring country music promoting revenge against foreign enemies.
Some of the enemies are right here.
