Si los dos crecieron a una cuadra de distancia en el vecindario Wynwood Heights de la Atlanta sureña. "¿Cómo lo lograste?", le pregunta Quan a Justyce, el joven protagonista de Querido Martin, en las cartas que le envía desde el Centro Regional de Detención Juvenil. Además de sus mensajes al amigo, las viñetas y flashbacks de la vida de Quan muestran sus problemas en casa, los malentendidos en la escuela, la incomprensión. Todo lo que conduce a un encuentro con la policía, donde las cosas se salen de control. Un oficial muerto y un arma con sus huellas cambian el destino del joven. Ni siquiera él está seguro de cómo sucedieron las cosas."--Provided by publisher.
Incarcerated teen Quan Banks writes letters to Justyce McCallister, with whom he bonded years before over family issues, about his experiences in the American juvenile justice system. -- Provided by publisher.
An unflinching look into the tragically flawed practices and silenced voices in the American juvenile justice system. Vernell LaQuan Banks and Justyce McAllister grew up a block apart in the Southwest Atlanta neighborhood of Wynwood Heights. Years later, though, Justyce walks the illustrious halls of Yale University . . . and Quan sits behind bars at the Fulton Regional Youth Detention Center. Through a series of flashbacks, vignettes, and letters to Justyce-the protagonist of Dear Martin-Quan's story takes form. Troubles at home and misunderstandings at school give rise to police encounters and tough decisions. But then there's a dead cop and a weapon with Quan's prints on it. What leads a bright kid down a road to a murder charge? Not even Quan is sure. -- Provided by publisher.
