A LESSON BEFORE DYING: Protect Your Name, Protect Your Peace.

from A. Idle Book Reviews · host A. Idle

Ernest J. Gaines maps another take to the ‘wrongful convicted black man’ narrative. The character of Jefferson is given the painful task to await his own death in a jail cell. Those around him encourage Jefferson to align himself with God & dignity. We have all heard stories of injustice before, what makes this special is the explanation of the ripple effect it has on a community.
