**Join us to discuss That Peckham Boy by Kenny Imafidon**

**About us:**
The Sisterhood Book Club meets once a month to discuss books by authors of African descent. The books are usually a starting point for deeper discussions about life. We meet in person, either at one of our members' homes or in cosy, kid-friendly places in Zurich.

**About the book:**
Two days after his eighteenth birthday, Kenny Imafidon was charged with the murder of a seventeen-year-old boy in south-east London. The middle child of a single mother with ambitions for her children, Kenny grew up near an estate in Peckham where deprivation and hopelessness were rife, and gang culture flourished in his community. Kenny faced a minimum of thirty years behind bars - longer than the life he had lived.

When the case against Kenny collapsed, he quickly realised that his name was still inextricably linked with a horrific crime he hadn't committed. He decided to rewrite his story. It began with The Kenny Report, which he delivered to the House of Commons and which detailed the experiences of marginalised young people who drift into gangs, and has led to extensive work with charities, communities and policy-makers that is helping to change the narratives of other young people just like Kenny.
