Until I Fought Back: The Memoir

My name is E and I had an interrupted childhood. Read further at risk.In my inner city life story I reveal my struggles in the first-person narrative unscripted. I dont care about being politically or intellectually correct. This was written for those young men who need guidance. I narrate issues such as the role of stepparenting bullying urban peer pressure and inner-city strife. In the 1980s African Americans were on the brink of nothingness and I was part of that trend.In the 90s I adopted a more delinquent approach which labeled me a hoodlum that would never make it to his 21st birthday. This is the typical stereotype for a young black adult in adolescence unfortunately. In retrospect hes just trying to find his/her place in society. The influences of negativity are stronger in the hood than anyplace else. Thats why I found hustling as the only way while in university and it paid off.The cold streets of Philly dont take prisoners. I almost lost my life many times in the game. Fortuitously it was Gods grace that has allowed me to share my story.If you are looking for a no-holds-barred boyhood autobiography of the reality of Americas inner cities this ones for you. The parent-child lessons in this book will only show you what works and what doesnt.
