博客來I Never Sold My Soul, but I’ll Give You This is a raw, unfiltered memoir that traces one Native American man’s journey through poverty, systemic abuse, incarceration, and spiritual awakening. Written with brutal honesty and philosophical depth, Makade Mi’ingin recounts a life shaped by foster care, institutional violence, racial injustice, and survival within the American criminal justice system.
From the streets of Minneapolis to state prisons, from lost childhood innocence to carrying the sacred Pipe for incarcerated brothers, this book explores identity, sovereignty, trauma, and resilience through the lens of lived experience. Blending personal narrative with cultural reflection, political insight, and spiritual questioning, the author challenges readers to confront uncomfortable truths about authority, freedom, and what it truly means to remain human in systems designed to break the spirit.
This is not a story of victimhood, but of endurance. A testimony for those unheard, unseen, and misjudged. Powerful, reflective, and uncompromising, this book stands as both a personal reckoning and a broader commentary on modern America.
