About this ebook
For the Love of the Child shows how one fathers custodial fight for his endangered daughter magnifies the traditional flaws of gender inequality and prejudice within the judicial system.
Cedric Marlowe
In For the Love of the Child, author Cedric Marlowe narrates his personal, six-year custody fight as a black, single father. His journey to save his daughter, threatened by the environment of her own mother, pits him against an archaic Southern brand of justice that seemingly empowers the woman while stereotyping the man. As he finds every door closed, every avenue blocked, every decision predetermined, he realizes he’s not only fighting for a child, but for thousands of men like him who are broken, defeated, and resigned by the struggles of justice.
