Description

I was born a BASTARD of southwest Philadelphia and raised in a rundown row house in one of America's most notorious GHETTOS, Camden, New Jersey. My upbringing was marked by a resilient mother, an inconsistent father, and the harsh realities of a city that claimed several of my immediate family member's lives, the youngest among them being a victim of police violence. I found myself embodying the archetype of an American stereotype.


Yet, I don't seek or need pity for my tumultuous past. Encouraged by my therapist, I embarked on a journey of emotional and psychological healing, delving into the depths of my traumas. Today, I invite you to witness the fruits of those therapy sessions, where I uncovered a simple yet profound life philosophy.


"Life is simple. Fundamental needs-food, water, shelter, and love-are all one requires to not only survive but thrive. It's the choices we make along the way, particularly the misguided ones, that determine the complexity of our lives."

Editorial Reviews

I felt as if I was in the main character's, the author, therapy sessions.

There were so many moments that made me look at myself and say

Ahhh, I'm not the only one!

-Latrice Hopkins (Texarkana, TX)


It's...so...good! I had to take breaks because I couldn't stop crying.

-Kemy Claremont (Newark, NJ)


In T.H. Moore's new book, "Ghetto Bastard: A memoir", he unabashedly

reflects on his journey being raised in one of Americas most notorious

ghettos, Camden New Jersey. With raw poignancy and vulnerability he

delivers a true and moving against all odds testimony and story.

-Paige (Maryland)


I felt very strongly for this story, his story, because it's not just his. It's very

similar to my story and stories of other black men that I know and love.

Ghetto Bastard is a REALLY good read. It skillfully takes you on a journey

from surviving to thriving and inspires you to let go of survivors' remorse.

Thank you T.H. Moore for this book!

-Tysheina Robertson-Pope (Colorado)
