More DescriptionMeet US Army Veteran (With Honorable Discharge) David-Nero Mailey, a young man who once served his country, only to be honorably discharged with no home to go to. Life to take a turn for the worse when he returned home to find out his mother had died from poor health. This is the moment his sanity went in question. By the age of 21, his young adult life went from being a soldier to being placed in a mental institution and deemed homeless for over a decade. Due to him being placed in an unjust system and deemed unemployable, Mr. Mailey became a product of the bias post civil-rights laws placed by a mixture of good and bad legislation. Trapped in an urban maze on Chicago's South Side during the Civil Rights, Vietnam, and post President Reagan Era, Mr. Mailey kept journals and artwork detailing his thoughts and life stories. Some of these journals were poetries, and he later shared them with several libraries, magazines, and schools - most noticeably the University of Chicago and the Right On! Magazine. He also completed a writing project for DuSable High School in 1975 as a student. Brief Autobiography.Share the experience of heartache, breakthroughs, and redemption with an honorable American Army veteran, David-Nero Mailey. Reliving his past through a collection of urban art and rhythm, giving readers a look into the life of an oppressed soldier.
