This book has allowed me to think about my own internal bias and how this may influence how I originally viewed people whose crimes or life experience did not align with my morals, values or lived experience. By bringing awareness to this it allows us to view people as people. Every person is deserving of help, respect and redemption and we really need to ensure that this is allowed to happen by supporting those individuals and organisations who do this kind of work.
Not always an easy read but a necessary one.
