Convicted in the Womb: One Man's Journey from Prisoner to Peacemaker Paperback - 1997
by Carl Upchurch
Born in a roach-infested tenement in South Philadelphia, Carl Upchurch's life epitomized the tragedy of inner-city America. In this explosive look at racial injustice, Upchurch, the executive director of the Council for Urban Peace and Justice, argues that it is time for a new generation of leaders, drawn from the masses, to overcome America's political and economic apartheid.
From the jacket flap
Once Carl Upchurch was an elementary school dropout fighting for survival on the streets of South Philadelphia, a gang member wedded to a life of violence, a bank robber facing a future in federal penitentiaries. Now he is a respected community organizer and one of the most compelling and visionary leaders of the civil rights movement. Catapulted into the national spotlight following his organization of a summit that brought together the country's most notorious gangs. Carl Upchurch has found himself in direct conflict with other African American civil right leaders. This is his scathing critique of t he established civil rights movement and his bold manifesto for solving the critical problems facing today's urban American. And this is his own unforgettable story-reality of urban crime gang warfare, and racial injustice from one who knows firsthand what it's like to be Convicted in the Womb
