About this listen
Your personal identity describes who you are, who you aspire to be, or who people perceive you to be. The majority of us have been told in our lives at one time or another that we can be whoever or whatever we want to be, but what happens when someone else makes that decision for you without your honest consent? Typically in our society when someone's identity is stolen, there are a series of laws and agencies in place to remedy that issue; however, when it is the lawmaker that is the thief of your identity, what recourse do you have? Who do you tell? Who can help you? Who will believe you?
Stolen Identity is a story about a young man's battle with a dysfunctional family, a faulty criminal justice system, and oppressive society to distinguish who he really is from who they have labeled him as and virtually created him to be.

Story
Aida Rodriguez has, to put it mildly, lived a whirlwind life. Her rags-to-riches story is mind-blowing: She was kidnapped as a child by her mother in the Dominican Republic and brought to the US. She was later kidnapped again by her grandmother and uncle and moved from New York to Florida. As an adult, she ended a difficult marriage and endured homelessness with her children in Los Angeles. But through it all she never lost her sense of humor.

J. D. Vance tells the true story of what a social, regional, and class decline feels like when you were born with it hung around your neck.

In 2013 Assata Shakur, founding member of the Black Liberation Army, former Black Panther and godmother of Tupac Shakur, became the first ever woman to make the FBI's most wanted list. Assata Shakur's trial and conviction for the murder of a white State Trooper in the spring of 1973 divided America. Her case quickly became emblematic of race relations and police brutality in the USA. While Assata's detractors continue to label her a ruthless killer, her defenders cite her as the victim of a systematic, racist campaign.

Story
All too often, we hear about the dangers of male friendships in which peer pressure prevails over common sense. But for George Jenkins, Sampson Davis, and Rameck Hunt, strong and supportive male friendship was a powerful antidote to the temptations and pitfalls of street life. It led three boys to make a vow to be there for one another, to encourage one another every step of the way, until they overcame the odds and became doctors.

Story
What do we really know about modern practicing polygamists - not fictional ones like the Henrickson family on HBO’s Big Love? We’ve seen the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in the news, the underage brides in pioneer dresses on a Texas ranch. But the FLDS is just one of many groups that have broken with mainstream Mormonism to follow those parts of Joseph Smith’s doctrine disavowed by the LDS Church. Gaining unprecedented access to these communities, journalist Sanjiv Bhattacharya reveals a shadow country....

Bobi Conn was raised in a remote Kentucky holler in 1980s Appalachia. She remembers her tin-roofed house tucked away in a vast forest paradise; the sparkling creeks, with their frogs and crawdads; the sweet blackberries growing along the road to her granny’s; and her abusive father. An elegiac account of survival despite being born poor, female, and cloistered, Bobi’s testament is one of hope for all vulnerable populations, particularly women and girls caught in the cycle of poverty and abuse.

To many in the age of Obama, America had succeeded in "going beyond race", putting the divisions of the past behind us. And then 17-year-old Trayvon Martin was shot by a wannabe cop in Florida; and then 18-year-old Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri; and then Baltimore blew up; and then gunfire shattered a prayer meeting at a church in Charleston, South Carolina. Suddenly the entire country awakened to a stark fact: Young Black men are an endangered species.

A True Warrior
The audiobook 🔊affected me more differently than the printed book. This audiobook🔊 has provided a more vivid depiction of the legalization system that is still employed against the populace.
The author's use of descriptive details to construct a picture of the experience from his perspective as a young, abused, talented black boy is ingenious and brave.
This young man's tragedy should be utilized as a case study💼 at all universities to illustrate the corrupted and unfair system that afflicts the majority of economically disadvantaged and people of color. Thank you for sharing your story, let this be inspiration to many and also may your desires be fulfilled through God!!!
👏 🙀 AMAZING Audiobook!!!

I loved it! This audiobook was very detailed about the life of the author. It is well worth the read. The story displays the author's perseverance and an unwillingness to give up. I could listen to the narrator read multiple books as well which is very important for an audiobook.

A window in to a justice system gone wrong
At first the narration made this story hard to listen to. As I listened to the story I became convinced this story should not be easy to listen to. Stolen Identity tells one story of a justice system that plays a significant role in our society and has gone wrong. Sadly this is an all too common story.

RoShawn’s story is a sobering reminder that the system is broken but that doesn’t mean our spirits and souls are.
Great listen. I appreciate the author’s vulnerability in sharing his story. This situation happens to so many brothers and continues to ruin our lives and beat us down. My prayers there’s true justice in the long run for Roshawn and other brothers who share similar struggles.

A raw, personal journey
I’ve been on a personal journey to remedy the huge gaps in my education. I grew up in the Midwest - my graduating class was 600+, 99% white. I learned what the system wanted me to learn and it’s now my responsibility to educate myself. That being said, I would recommend this book to anyone who still thinks that the “system” doesn’t need fixing. Especially people like me, who will never have to experience this real-life nightmare simply due to genetics. It’s a raw insight into a man who lost everything over and over again, a teenager who didn’t get a second chance, and a boy who didn’t have a champion in his corner. It’s a brutal display of a system that allows the most vulnerable to fall through cracks. I challenge you to finish this and not find compassion.

The way RoShawn Evans tells his story really holds the reader’s attention and opens our eyes about how many face injustices in systems designed to oppress certain populations.
I also loved the sound of the narrator’s voice.

Must Read
This book addresses the unaddressed, over looked, and ignored when it comes to false sex accusations, fast while under aged, ignorant parents, and a prejudice criminal system!!!
And the moderator was great.
