There’s comfort in shared pain, empathy in harrowing adversity and consolation in knowing that an injustice has been experienced and, often, overcome and for this, we sometimes we need a book that will give us a good cry. “Live or Die Tryin’ by Yahkhahnahn Ammi is one. Ammin deals boldly with many social issues in the 4Ds Dismiss, Discredit, Demonize, Destroy and more, the plight of immigrants, poverty and sexual slavery.
