About this ebook
The Paths I Chose is a story that begins as a prison journal that quickly morphs into a tale of a young black man whose life is shaped by experiences of his life. It all begins in South Florida and unfolds in the outlying suburban streets of downtown Atlanta, from the formative post-era civil rights years of his life. He encounters racism and inequality as an adolescence in schools and the military. Things don’t get better in life after transitioning back to civilian life and really trying to be the person he is expected to be. He also talks about the inhumane conditions and treatment of prisoners by guards and how prisons have been turned into industrial complexes that profit off inmates by leasing them out as laborers.
This book contains stories about the rise or epidemic of drug use and sales in the city that he calls home, along with introductions to people who affect his. It also contains a decade-by-decade historical timeline from the 60s to the 2000s—complete with rumors, conspiracy theories, and interesting looks at history as it unfolds.
