Listen Later

*This is Part 2 of my conversation with Christian Townsell about the book Dear Martin by Nic Stone.*


Dear Martin by Nic Stone gives a vivid glance into the mind of a teenager who is the victim of police brutality.  Justyce McAllister is a senior who lives in Atlanta and is trying to understand why there is so much senseless violence against his people.  As an African-American boy, Justyce encounters some situations that leave him questioning his position in society.

In this episode, I convince my friend Christian to read the book by discussing some topics such as;

  • Police Brutality
  • Racism
  • Micro-Aggressions from peers in school settings
  • Do you want to purchase a copy of Dear Martin?
