Behind the Walls with Tupac Shakur

By Donald Richardson

I think people should know the real Tupac Shakur - not just thug life, but real life.We were behind the wall together. I watched him battle the conflict raging within him, between the revolutionary he was raised to be and the gangster the streets wanted him to be, between the push of his talent and the pull of his environment.That internal struggle is symbolic of an entire community. And that's why I wrote this book.Now more than ever, our young men and women are caught in a struggle: a struggle against the mismessaging of social media, the disturbing trend of overt sexuality, the lure of violence, the glorification of gang life, the push to conform to something and someone they were never intended to.Behind the Walls with Tupac Shakur, ironically, is more relevant now than ever before. It's an intimate look through the eyes of my friend, the legend, with a powerful message for the future of Black America.
