    Awesome Book
  

*by S***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 22, 2022*

This book is a must read. I recommend this to everyone black or other ethnicity. It is a heartfelt story of racism against blacks. Black lives do matter, we are human beings that God created in his image.

*by N***C on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 8, 2017*

At the end of a long day of visits, lunch conversations, and a lecture presentation, I was thanking John Jennings and Damian Duffy for being so awesome discussing their recently released graphic novel adaptation of Octavia E. Butler’s KINDRED. I congratulated them again on their week old release of I AM ALFONSO JONES.  We had talked about all the new YA books that were being published and how many held the same theme. And right before departing, John said it was unfortunate that the big selling topic is the killing of little Black boys . . .The constant shootings and beatings of Black people across the United States has caused a state of numbness in people that are watching or reading the news. We are living in a culture where the old saying, “Who you gonna believe me or your lying eyes?” holds true every time a not guilty verdict is announced even though videos show police officers beating, strangling, or even shooting a Black person over and over and over again. The eyes are misinterpreted in every courtroom across the country when officers are put on trial for these deaths.I AM ALFONSO JONES is a hip-hop blues production beautifully choreographed by Tony Medina, John Jennings, Stacey Robinson and Damian Duffy. This graphic novel rhythmically moves through the life and hereafter of fifteen year old, Alfonso Jones of Harlem. This is a living testimony of the many wandering Black souls that have been killed by police violence without any justice and definitely no peace.  From Eleanor Bumpurs to a Black homeless veteran, these spirits ride throughout New York on a different underground railway, one where they are invisible, forgotten, and sadly not freed because of juries denying their innocence.I AM ALFONSO JONES begins with a soaring bullet aimed at a fifteen year old who was just holding a clothes hanger and a lifetime of hopes and dreams.  The graphics precisely detail how the artists’ danced perfectly with Medina’s words throughout the story. They literally were all on the same page / panel to make sure the reader does not miss one drop of the pain, shock, anger, and betrayal that is seen through classmates, parents, and community. This book is spiritual, historical, and poignant.  It is timely and should be read by EVERYONE.  The Black Lives Matter Movement is real. The featured bullet has been real too many times. The painful message within I AM ALFONSO JONES is sadly real. And unfortunately the non-existing ending is also real. I AM Alfonso Jones.
