His Portland, Oregon, neighborhood is rapidly gentrifying, and COVID-19 shuts down school before he can return. And Andre’s suspicions about his arrest for a crime he didn’t commit even taint his friendships. It’s as if his whole life has been erased.

With the help of Steph’s younger sister, Jasmine, they come up with a plan to promote Steph’s music under a new rap name: the Architect. Soon, everyone wants a piece of him. When his demo catches the attention of a hotheaded music label rep, the trio must prove Steph’s talent from beyond the grave.

A bag of chips. That's all 16-year-old Rashad is looking for at the corner bodega. What he finds instead is a fist-happy cop, Paul Galluzzo, who mistakes Rashad for a shoplifter, mistakes Rashad's pleadings that he's stolen nothing for belligerence, mistakes Rashad's resistance to leave the bodega as resisting arrest, mistakes Rashad's every flinch at every punch the cop throws as further resistance and refusal to STAY STILL as ordered.

Resumen del Editor
"Incredible and searing." (Nic Stone, number-one New York Times best-selling author of Dear Martin)
The Hate U Give meets Just Mercy in this unflinching yet uplifting first novel that explores the racist injustices in the American justice system.
Every week, 17-year-old Tracy Beaumont writes letters to Innocence X, asking the organization to help her father, an innocent Black man on death row. After seven years, Tracy is running out of time - her dad has only 267 days left. Then the unthinkable happens. The police arrive in the night, and Tracy's older brother, Jamal, goes from being a bright, promising track star to a "thug" on the run, accused of killing a white girl. Determined to save her brother, Tracy investigates what really happened between Jamal and Angela down at the Pike. But will Tracy and her family survive the uncovering of the skeletons of their Texas town's racist history that still haunt the present?
Fans of Nic Stone, Tiffany D. Jackson, and Jason Reynolds won't want to miss this provocative and gripping debut.

Historia
The noises, faint, fleeting, whispered into her consciousness like wraiths passing in the night. Twelve-year-old Erin Willit opened her eyes to darkness lit only by the dim green nightlight near her closet door and the faint glow of a street lamp through her front window. She felt her forehead wrinkle, the fingers of one hand curl as she tried to discern what had awakened her. Something was not right.... Annie Kingston moves to Grove Landing for safety and quiet - and comes face to face with evil.

This rape case is different from most: the victim is more than willing to testify and there's ample evidence to put the suspect behind bars. But one thing gnaws at Detective Larry Millsaps - young and beautiful Melissa Nelson knows too much about the evidence needed to convict her attacker. Millsaps's investigation unearths the suspect's brutal track record, but also some stunning revelations about Melissa's own past. Caught in a deadly conflict between the ironies of the law and the demands of his Christian convictions, the detective finds himself protecting Melissa - even as evidence mounts that could imprison not only an inhuman criminal, but also the woman Millsaps has come to love.

She accepted a scholarship to a mostly-white private school and even Saturday morning test prep opportunities. But some opportunities feel more demeaning than helpful.

A MUST READ for everyone!!
Where do I begin—Awesome?
As I read This Is My America, I fell deep into a story that is very close to my heart. Close to my mission—to uplift Black voices and continue to strive to uncover the unfair and Injustice of Black men.
Kim Johnson gives an unapologetic glimpse into the lives of what America really looks like to Black men—to their families they leave behind.
I loved the plot, descriptive setting, sensory details throughout, and the realistic dialogue between realistic characters.
The author did a wonderful. No FANTASTIC job in pulling me in as a reader as if I was watching a movie—or in most Black homes, watching the 7:00 local news. I can’t say enough of the emotions I felt inside, but what I can say is this... Stories like this needs to be told. We have to change the narrative and continue to stand in solidarity to end Injustice for all.

This is my American is my favorite book now!!!!
I loved this book because it had a great story line, and it showed what it would be like it if someone you loved was in jail for something he/she didn’t do. The narrator Bahni Turpin was amazing!! The way she read it was spectacular. You could really see the emotion in the story and what the characters look like. Over all this book is amazing and I 100% recommend it!!

Impeccable Narration
Bahni made reading this book an amazing experience! She portrayed the main character in a way that it sounds as if Tracy is speaking to you! A memorable experience and an even amazing book for YA!

Love to see this as a film
This story and characters were so relevant to what is going on today. This is great book for teens and should be use in class for political science.

Wow wow wow
This book was impossible to put down (or pause!) The story was engaging and devastating. I love listening to Bahni Turpin, and as always, she made this book even better.

Wow!
I am not your typical book lover-- I'm the guy that prefers watching the movie instead. This book sucked me in and with each chapter, I couldn't help but read more and more! I am VERY impressed with this book. It had a good flow, it was suspenseful, engaging, educational and riveting. I HIGHLY recommend this book! You won't regret it!

Well Written, Well Performed
Great, nuanced story with a satisfying conclusion. Manages to not be preachy even while addressing multiple issues of morality and faith. The voice actor was amazing. All of her voices were distinct and believable, regardless of genders, ages, and backgrounds of the characters she voiced. The story development includes multiple layers of history and connects the past with the present.
