A Timely Reminder
As King reminds us with the quote featured in his upcoming talk—”Those who forget history are bound to repeat the mistakes of the past”—his book arrives at a critical moment when debates about juvenile justice, institutional accountability, and rehabilitation continue to divide our nation.
By bearing witness to this dark chapter of American history, King has created more than a memoir; he has provided a roadmap for how societies can acknowledge historical wrongs and move toward true rehabilitation—not just of individuals, but of our collective approach to justice itself.
“From Dozier School Incarceration to Rehabilitation” isn’t always an easy read, but it is an essential one—a testament to the power of truth-telling and the human capacity to transform even the darkest experiences into sources of wisdom and change.
Warren King will be discussing and signing copies of “From Dozier School Incarceration to Rehabilitation: A True Story of How Chains Are Broken” at Café Resistance (5007 Soutel Drive) on May 10, 2025, from 2:00pm to 4:00pm. The event will feature conversation, music, refreshments, and the opportunity to meet this remarkable author and advocate.
