Critiques en avant-premièreShari Peele

A winner of the Coretta Scott King/John Steptoe Award, Kekla Magoon has established herself as one of the most powerful voices in YA fiction. In this hard-hitting work, a 16-year-old black youth is killed by a white shooter, leaving his community to struggle for answers—and meaning—in the aftermath. (Fiction/Ages 12 and up) “Magoon masterfully captures the cycle of urban violence and the raw emotions of the young people who can’t escape its impact.”—Publishers Weekly, starred review When sixteen-year-old Tariq Johnson dies from two gunshot wounds, his community is thrown into an uproar. Tariq was black. The shooter, Jack Franklin, is white. In the aftermath of Tariq’s death, everyone has something to say, but no two accounts of the events line up. Day by day, new twists further obscure the truth. Tariq’s friends, family, and community struggle to make sense of the tragedy, and to cope with the hole left behind when a life is cut short. In their own words, they grapple for a way to say with certainty: This is how it went down.
