Historia
Twelve-year-old Jordan feels like he can't live up to the example his older sister set or his parent's expectations. When he returns home from school one day hoping to hide his suspension, Los Angeles has reached a turning point. In the wake of the acquittal of the police officers filmed beating Rodney King, as well as the shooting of a young Black teen, Latasha Harlins, by a Korean store owner, the country is at the precipice of confronting its racist past and present.

Engaging story for all ages
Revisado: 05-01-22
I was just a kid growing up in NJ when the riots happened. LA seemed worlds away. Now fast forward 30 years & yep I’m an Angelena. It behooves me as a Korean-American living in LA to educate myself about the events leading up to & following the riots. In that vein, this book, with its engrossing story & compelling read by John Cho, not only is totally educational while keeping a personal, intimate perspective on big topics, but it’s also a fun listen. Definitely took me back to my own years feeling like a displaced kid in the US. I laughed & cried. We need more stories like this!
