Traumatic Memoirs - Gangsta: To Be or Not To Be (Book 1) Epub FileTraumatic Memoirs - Gangsta: To Be or Not To Be (Book 1) is a powerful and compelling nonfiction book for all to read. An abusive childhood, an absent father, and mental hopelessness transformed young Art Powell into the gangsta of America’s nightmares. He was first exposed to the criminal element at the early age of thirteen; at nineteen, he helped found the infamous I Refuse Posse, which ruled the streets of Southwest Atlanta from 1988 to 1992. In 1993, rather than die with his crew, Powell chose to start a new life. Hold on as he takes you on a ride through the joy, pain, terror, sorrow, and deceit of his first twenty-five years. You’ll feel the adrenaline of a shootout, the loneliness of having nowhere to go, and the desperation of attempting suicide. Look into the heart and mind of a man who was willing to sacrifice any human life, even his own, in the quest to make a name for himself. |
