I found Dr Anyieth's autobiographical book an engrossing read in understanding what was behind the dogwhistle reporting of "African gang violence" in Melbourne a few years back. Her personal story is illuminating, one I found very helpful in understanding how she was able to survive and transcend difficult circumstances laced with racism, and ethnic and domestic violence to become the renowned advocate and scholar she has become. Sheer guts and determination!
