Lucia Kay McBath knew deep down a bullet could 1 day take her child. After all, she had watched the news headlines of countless unarmed black males unjustly gunned down.

Standing Our Surface: Putting Faith in God Over Beliefs in about Standing Our Surface: The Triumph of Trust Over Gun Assault: A Mother’s Story Guns is usually McBath’s memoir of increasing, loving, and dropping her son to gun violence, and the story of how she changed her pain into activism. After seventeen-year-old Jordan Davis was shot by a guy who thought the music playing on his car stereo was too noisy, the nation grieved yet again for the needless loss of lifestyle. Here, McBath goes beyond the timeline as well as the assailant’s protection—Stand Your Ground—to provide an emotional account of her fervent fight for justice, and her awakening to a reason that will drive the rest of her days.

But a lot more than McBath’s tale or that of her kid, Standing Our Surface keenly observes the cultural and political development of America’s gun tradition. A must-read for anyone concerned with gun safety in America, it harkens back again to such bestsellers as The Brief and Tragic Existence of Robert Tranquility and Nobody.
