Event Details
Join ROPL for a visit from Dr. Cheryl Neely as she tours Michigan as a 2026 Michigan Notable Book Author!
Copies of her book No Human Involved: The Serial Murder of Black Women and Girls will be sold by Sidetrack Bookshop during the event. Refreshments will be served.
"Oakland Community College professor Cheryl L. Neely traces the lives of Black women and girls from Detroit and other major US cities who were victims of targeted killings. Using personal interviews, court records, media reports, and analytical data, Neeley calls attention to serial cases of murder victims revealing why Black females are disproportionately more likely than white women to die from homicide."
