Drawing from his lived experiences, years of legal and community advocacy, and deep insight into the prison-industrial system, Beals reveals how false narratives, broken institutions, and limiting beliefs shape the lives of millions—and how they can be dismantled.
Inside this gripping and motivational guide, readers will learn:
Why you are not a victim—and how to take back control of your story
