"Sunny Hostin is an inspiring person, and her story is rich with insights into the different worlds and identities she has navigated. There is much to learn from I Am These Truths—for anyone seeking to understand those worlds, and anyone looking to translate life's challenges and complexities into a fierce commitment to justice." —Ronan Farrow, author of Catch and Kill: Lies, Spies, and a Conspiracy to Protect Predators
"What are you?" has followed Sunny Hostin from the beginning of her story, as she grew up half Puerto Rican and half African American raised by teenage parents in the South Bronx. Escaping poverty and the turbulence of her early life through hard work, a bit of luck and earning academic scholarships to college and law school, Sunny immersed herself in the workings of the criminal justice system. In Washington, D.C., Sunny became a federal prosecutor, soon parlaying her wealth of knowledge of the legal system into a successful career as a legal journalist. She was one of the first national reporters to cover Trayvon Martin's death—which her producers erroneously labeled "just a local story."
Today, an inescapable voice from the top echelons of news and entertainment, Sunny uses her platform to advocate for social justice and give a voice to the marginalized. In her signature no-holds-barred, straight-up style, Sunny opens up and shares her intimate struggles with fertility and personal turmoil, and reflects on the high-stakes cases and stories she worked on as a prosecutor and during her time at CNN, Fox News, ABC and The View. Timely, poignant, and moving, I Am These Truths is the story of a woman living between two worlds and learning to bridge them together to fight for what's right.
"Through [Hostin's] eyes, readers will gain a better understanding of what it means to be a mixed-race woman in a society that too often defines people based on background or ethnicity rather than work ethic or merit." —Kirkus Reviews
