2016 non-fiction book by Gary Younge
Another Day in the Death of America: A Chronicle of Ten Short Lives is a 2016 non-fiction book by the British journalist and writer Gary Younge . The book focuses on the stories of 10 American children and teenagers, ranging from the ages of nine to 19, killed by gun violence within a 24-hour time period on November 23, 2013.[ 1] [ 2] [ 3] [ 4] [ 5] [ 6] [ 7] [ 8] [ 9] [ 10] The book follows the lives and deaths of Jaiden Dixon,[ 11] Kenneth Mills-Tucker,[ 12] Stanley Taylor,[ 13] Pedro Cortez,[ 14] Tyler Dunn,[ 15] Edwin Rajo,[ 16] Samuel Brightmon,[ 17] Tyshon Anderson,[ 18] [ 19] Gary Anderson,[ 20] and Gustin Hinnant.[ 21]
Younge explores how the deaths are "normal" by American standards—in that none of the stories made national news—but not "normal" by civilized standards. The book was published by Nation Books .
