Description

Guantánamo Kid: The True Story of Mohammed El-Gharani At 14, Mohammed's prospects in Saudi Arabia were limited. Born with Chadian roots, he faced restrictions on his access to healthcare and education. With entrepreneurial spirit, he scraped together money as a street trader, but opportunities were scarce. Mohammed's life took a dramatic turn when he was detained during a raid at his local mosque in Karachi. After being beaten and interrogated, he was sold to the American government by Pakistani forces. The Americans flew him to Kandahar and then Guantánamo Bay, where he became one of the youngest detainees. This graphic novel tells Mohammed's story, as closely as possible, based on his own memories and experiences in the camp.
