Paperback. Condición: Good. Debra Dickerson pulls no punches in this electrifying manifesto.

Paperback. Condición: Good. A profoundly courageous and insightful memoir, An American Story documents the events that have shaped journalist Debra Dickerson's conscience. The daughter of former sharecroppers, Dickerson never imagined she would emerge from her squalid St. Louis neighborhood to become an acclaimed journalist with a Harvard Law degree.
