About this product
Product Information
This Is Not For You tells the story of activist and photographer Richard Brown, a Black Portlander who has spent decades working to bridge the divide between police and the Black community. His memoir brings readers with him into the streets with fellow activists, into squad cars with the rank-and-file, and to regular meetings with mayors and police chiefs. There are very few people doing the kind of work Richard Brown has done. And that, as he sees it, is a big problem. The book finds Brown approaching his eightieth birthday and reflecting on his life. As he recalls his childhood in 1940s Harlem, his radicalization in the newly desegregated Air Force, and his decades of activism in one of America's whitest cities, he questions how much longer he'll do this work, and he wonders who, if anyone, will take his place. This is a book about how and why to become an engaged, activist citizen, and how activists can stay grounded, no matter how deeply they immerse themselves in the work. It also offers an intimate, firsthand look at policing: what policing is and could be, how civilians can have a say, and how police can and should be responsive to and inclusive of civilian voices. This Is Not For You speaks on every page about being Black in America: about Black pride; Black history, art, and culture; and the experience of resisting white supremacy. It also stands as a much-needed counternarrative to Portlandia, telling a different story about the city and who has shaped it. Over fifty percent of royalties earned on this book will be donated to organizations working on behalf of Black Portlanders.

Reviews
"Richard Brown has opened his heart to allow us to see and feel his full life journey. From looking out the window to the street below as a child in Harlem, to living his truth out loud and authentically as a Black man and warrior activist, he has made a difference in how we talk about the administration of justice in Oregon and America." --Avel Louise Gordly, former Oregon legislator, author of Remembering the Power of Words, "Richard Brown tells a story that punctures the myths of Portland, Oregon, as a progressive utopia. From education to police policy, Brown dismantles systemic racism in a story that drives to the heart, because he was there--and tried to fix it. Put this book on your must-read list." -- Rene Denfeld, death row investigator and bestselling author of The Child Finder, "At once a coming-of-age story, a history of Black-led movements in Portland, and a guidebook for would-be activists, This Is Not For You is a well-written account of an exceptionally well-lived life. I will read this book again and again." --Ron Herndon, Director of Albina Head Start

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
