And the sun shone again - Anthony Ray
I thought again about all the options I was deprived of, and about freedom.. despair was a choice. Hatred was a choice. Anger was a choice. And I discovered that I am still able to choose, this idea shook me. I can choose between surrender and resilience, so hope itself is a choice. Faith is a choice. And more importantly, love in turn is a choice, and compassion is also a choice.
Anthony Ray Hinton spent thirty years of his life on death row for a crime he did not commit, and through this inspiring biography, he wanted to share a story of hope, love, justice, and the incredible power of books to bring people closer, ease their pain, and heal their wounds.
This wonderful book instills in us the spirit of resilience and urges us to face violence, injustice, and fanaticism with our heads held high, in a world that "treats you better if you are rich and guilty than if you are poor and innocent," and makes us feel the value of life and the value of a human being, emphasizing that "the worth of each of us far exceeds our worst actions."
