Descended from West African kings and healers, Kadiatou Diallo was married off at the age of 13. Twenty-three years later, her son--a gentle, innocent young man named Amadou--was gunned down in New York City. Now Diallo tells the astonishing, inspiring story of her life, her loss, and the defiant strength she has found within.
