The Day My Brother Was Murdered

My Journey Through America’s Violent Crime Crisis

By: Gianno Caldwell

Narrated by: Gianno Caldwell

A Fox News analyst and well-known commentator on urban violence examines the rise in crime affecting American cities and tells how it has personally affected families, including his own.

On June 24, 2022, Gianno Caldwell’s eighteen-year-old brother, Christian, was murdered. He was standing with friends on a street in the Southside of Chicago when a black SUV pulled up and several unidentified men opened fire. Fifty shell casings were later found at the scene. Three in the crowd were rushed to the hospital; only two survived. His family was shattered, and Caldwell was devastated.

Tragically, he is not alone.

In this gripping exposé, Caldwell dives deep into the heart of America's big cities, telling the stories of several other murders that occurred on the same night his brother died, revealing the shocking human tragedy beneath the rise in crime rates. The Day My Brother Was Murdered takes a bold stance, shining a spotlight on the multiple failings of Democratic policies that have transformed our once-thriving metropolises into crime-ridden centers.

Caldwell meticulously dissects the consequences of progressive agendas that prioritize social experiments over public safety. Though some of the worst cities have the strictest gun control laws, they cannot stop the proliferation of weapons from states with few regulations. He reveals the detrimental effects of failed poverty programs, the effect of the disintegration of two-parent households, the decline of religion, and sanctuary city policies that can help to shield criminals.

Combining rigorous research and poignant personal anecdotes, Caldwell provides a comprehensive understanding of the dangers facing urban communities, and presents a compelling case for why we must reject the status quo and demand change.

The sad truth of justice having a blind eye

Direct and passionate in our search for justice. A 15 word minimum is not likely to happen for the busy person.

The honest pain of losing his brother. Then discovering that date belonged to many others.

I loved the book and pray for this and all families living with this type of tragedy!

Common sense review of violent crime

It is so great to see someone from Chicago take a different path besides mindlessly voting Democrat like they have for over 75 years. This man takes a serious look at solutions, something that hasn’t been seen in recent history in Chicago. Thank you for writing with intellectual honesty!

The love for his baby brother

Right away you can hear the love he has for his baby brother, and the hurts and sadness. This book was powerful. Mr. Caldwell did his homework on the issues that plague our cities. I live in Chicago so I know firsthand. This book was well written, I listened to it for hours sometimes. I know your baby brother would have been proud of you Christian legacy and his memory will never die. Thank you and God bless!

Sad But TRUE

Great delivery of such a crisis in our country. Spot on and agree corruption at the highest levels need to held accountable.... it's a sin
