Does Not Do Enough To Highlight The Individual Stories Lupine Smile Nation Books and NetGalley provided me with an electronic copy of Another Day in the Death of America: A Chronicle of Ten Short Lives, in exchange for an honest review.On Saturday, November 23, 2013, living in cities around the United States, Jaiden, Kenneth, Stanley, Pedro, Tyler, Edwin, Samuel, Tyshon, Gary, and Gustin all lost their lives. The premise upon which this book was based is as follows: "Those shot on any given day in different places and very different circumstances lack the critical mass and tragic drama to draw the attention of the nation'. Only new legislation can change this heartbreaking reality for America. This book provides a compelling reason for voters to act A mandatory read for every voter
In Another Day in the Death of America, award-winning journalist Gary Younge tells the stories of the lives lost during one such day. From the rural Midwest to the barrios of Texas, the narrative crisscrosses the country over a period of twenty-four hours to reveal the full human stories behind the gun-violence statistics and the brief mentions in local papers of lives lost.This powerful and moving work puts a human face—a child’s face—on the collateral damage” of gun deaths across the country. On an average day in America, seven children and teens will be shot dead. It could have been any day, but he chose November 23, 2013. This is not a book about gun control, but about what happens in a country where it does not exist. What emerges in these pages is a searing and urgent portrait of youth, family, and firearms in America today.. Black, white, and Latino, aged nine to nineteen, they fell at sleepovers, on street corners, in stairwells, and on their own doorsteps
A UK-born Guardian columnist who lives in the U.S., Younge brings an outsider's perspective and turns it into one of the book's core strengths as he questions commonly held beliefs about gun violence. Instead, he holds true to his purpose of making these dead children far more than statistics, delivering a heart-buckling read that is all the more painful because it’s real. Picking one day in 2013 when ten children were killed by guns in the United States (the average day's toll is seven children), Younge wrenches our focus off cold statistics and turns it to the friends, families and neighbor
