Black & Bulletproof: An African-American Warrior in the Israeli Army is a raw, intensely personal and inspiring look at the story of a young American who travels fromt the Westside to the Western wall and back again. It is a mesmerizing look at a heroic fighter trapped in a cycle of violence who manages to transcends cultural boundaries. With the unique perspective of being an African-American Jew fighting in Israel, Hardie captures the imagination with a story of race, violence, courage and faith.
