One of these books who absolutely should be read by everyone. A gripping memoir, telling the horror stories of America's wrongdoings. How a country, thinking that its citizens are better than anyone else (while in reality being WAY dumber and less educated), was and still is busy torturing innocent people. Literally, Mohamedou's story is that of a regular, honest arab man, arrested for exactly that: being a regular, honest ARAB man. Without ever any actual charge to his name, he spent and still is spending nearly all his life in prisons, hidden from journalists and any resemblance of "justice", as the UInited States and its criminal allies keep torturing him, sexually, physically, mentally to get him to confess to anything as a mean to keep him longer. Mohamedou's being beaten up into submission, raped, forbidden from practising his religion or even from sleeping, he's being lied that his mother and family members are being tortured as well... He isn't even told where HE is on Earth for many years. And all that, in the name of racism. America, you suck; americans, you suck just as much. You're a bunch of worthless creatures. I have no words, other than Mohamedou, I'm sorry the world's such a horrible place full of terrible people. I hope someone, somewhere, gets him and his innocent brothers out of prison. That man wrote a memoir in a language he learned while unfairly imprisoned and tortured, and he remained throughout an incredible, thoughtful, empathic human being... to the utmost contrary of every single guard and american official cited (while their names get hidden by, well, themselves) in this book. Shame on you all. Hope you die a  very slow and painful death. Mohamedou might be a pacifist at heart, you'd do well to remember that not everyone is.
