Title: ProthugignorestherealvictimsShameful
Date: Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2019
Review: This book has a gigantic flaw. It never addresses the true crime victims and their families. It tells the stories of gang bangers and criminals who terrorize the city of Chicago. We learn about their lives, their crimes, punishments, relationships and their inner struggles. But what about the victims? What about the grieving family members or the people who have their cars stolen? The citizens of Chicago who have been assaulted, robbed, burglarized and terrorized?We are supposed to feel sympathy for these violent offenders. We learn about their terrible childhoods, abusive parents, lack of resources.I found myself questioning the purpose of this book after every single chapter. The book did more to make me despise this city and the violent factions within it than feel sorry for them. Even the reformed criminals ended up being tiresome to me.Thereโs only so much good people can take. Stop expecting innocent crime victims to feel sorry for the perpetrators.

Review: As a woman who grew up on the South side of Chicago in public housing this book, though painful is both an important and insightful addition to my life. Iโve lived outside the U.S. for 20 years. While I currently know many who still reside in Chicago I personally feel relieved that I am not among them. I also feel indebted to the author for keeping me and the world in touch, on a visceral level, with the reality that exists beyond our current environment. It is important to read, to feel, to gain insights about the world beyond ourselves - to experience the humanity of those whose lives we better understand through this book.This is a painful read and as such and incredibly valuable read. I can not live someone elseโs experience. I can become more human by beginning my understanding of others experience and I feel required to do so.I was enormously impacted years ago by, There Are No Children Here. This book will also shape my understanding and sensitivity to the world that formed me - and fortunately released me from a first hand encounter with some of its most formidable pain.

Title: TheOtherForgottenAmericans
Date: Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2019
Review: This book does something very special and very moving. It shows how a single bullet is like a rock in a pond, ever growing outward circles that get larger and larger touching so many more lives than just the victims who are too often portrayed perfunctorily with a sometimes subtle and often overt implication that they must be somehow members of a gang involved in illicit activity. There are so many innocents among the carnage, and even those victims who are not innocents have people who loved them and are forever scarred when violence touches close.It is a truism that the first duty of government is to secure the safety of its citizens. For the people living in the communities found in Chicago where children die simply sitting in front of their homes, government has failed them. People are capable of amazing things when they do not live in fear. Mr. Kotlowitz describes how violence begets fear and how that fear stands in the way of quelling the violence.Living in the Chicago area, one sees the daily news of recent shootings. The reporting almost reads like it belongs in the sports section with the box scores of yesterday's games. Before writing this review I simply googled Chicago shootings, below are the results and the matter of fact way the body count is relayed to the public.Quick Google results:Daily Shootings Roundup: 1 killed, 10 hurt in ... - Chicago Sun-Times1 day ago - 1 killed, 10 wounded in Thursday shootings ...Daily Shootings Roundup: 1 killed, 7 injured Wednesday in Chicago ...2 days ago - 1 killed, 7 injured Wednesday in Chicago shootings. Derrick Howard, 19, was killed and a 26-year-old man wounded Wednesday night.May 6, 2019 - At least 23 others were wounded in shootings across Chicago over the Cinco De Mayo weekend, between Friday evening and Monday ...Mr. Kotlowitz reminds very powerfully that there is a life behind every statistic and that life includes family and friends that are forever scarred in the aftermath. It's not unreasonable to think that a given shooting touches 50 others, especially when so many are young with classmates. In 2018 there were 2948 shooting victims in Chicago. The lives of nearly 150,000 people were touched, and Kotlowitz tells some of their stories.His style is so straightforward and matter of fact that it is chilling. It's the common place nature that brings the emotional reaction. Kotlowitz doesn't tell you how to feel, he just tells the stories and allows you to feel.These are truly forgotten Americans, and their government has failed them at its single most important mission, providing a safe and secure environment. The first thing we need is to know their stories to motivate us to address perhaps the single most pressing issue that exists.The book's purpose is not to propose solutions, it clearly exists to make the reader intimately feel the problem. That may be the first step....

Date: Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2019
Review: I bought this book after I heard an interview with Alex Kotlowitz on NPR. I ended up buying a copy of American Summer: Love and Death in Chicago. The amount of work Alex invested in the book really impressed me. I liked he gave voices to those who live in south and west Chicago, and to allowed them to show the reader what is not told in the media and press which is full of sensationalized headlines. After reading this book, I definitely plan on reading Alex's other books.

Title: Heartbreakingandhopeful
Date: Reviewed in the United States on July 4, 2019
Review: As a resident of chicago I can confirm it captures the full scope of the city, while reporting on a small segment of it. Unfortunately it is the one that grabs national headlines. Yet for all the violence and heartbreak I can't help but be regularly overwhelmed by the empathy, hope, generosity of spirit, and sheer force of will to keep going possessed by the people captured in these pages. It brings a much needed humanity to victims (and even some perpetrators looking for some sense of redemption) of violence.A powerful, beautiful and brilliant book.
