The chilling truth is that his story could have been mine. The tragedy is that my story could have been his.
Two kids named Wes Moore were born blocks apart within a year of each other. Both grew up fatherless in similar Baltimore neighborhoods and had difficult childhoods; both hung out on street corners with their crews; both ran into trouble with the police. How, then, did one grow up to be a Rhodes Scholar, decorated veteran, White House Fellow, and business leader, while the other ended up a convicted murderer serving a life sentence? Wes Moore, the author of this fascinating book, sets out to answer this profound question. In alternating narratives that take readers from heart-wrenching losses to moments of surprising redemption, The Other Wes Moore tells the story of a generation of boys trying to find their way in a hostile world.

其实觉得作者是站着说话不腰疼
评分在逛书店的时候看到标题很有意思就买了。感觉作者比较像政治家，很多敏感问题并不明说，但是自己从他的叙述中推出自己的结论可能更有意思。我看完之后的启发是，家庭因素对孩子的影响的决定性，以及又一次让我相信了个人意志的渺小。可能有人会说作者改变了自己的命运是因为他的个人努力，但是他的姐姐和妹妹都得到了很好的教育并且有所成就，而另一个Wes Moore 和他的哥哥双双终生监禁。这让我相信作者一家走出了围绕着他们的犯罪、毒品和未婚先孕的环境是因为他妈妈为了逃脱宿命的不懈努力。这种努力最大的作用是让孩子们相信自已可以用努力改变命运，可以脱离现有环境。
评分两个相同名字，类似生长环境却不同命运的故事。真实的美国。生活的环境哪怕不能改变一个人的命运，至少也能决定你暂时的走向。永远不要忽略周围人对你的影响。推荐一看！
评分好书 但是没有说出问题本质
