Overview

Misunderstood is the raw, street-born story of Ben Butler. A Black kid raised on brutal beatings, emotional neglect, and everyday racism in Shrewsbury's so-called Town of Flowers. On drugs by ten, on Class A by his teens, violence became the only language he trusted. Football firms, street gangs, even neo-Nazi crews. Ben moved through them all, chasing belonging and drowning pain. Prison schooled him in serious crime but also forced him to face the identity he'd never been allowed to claim. The Army pulled him out of the streets and around the world, but the discipline and pressure cracked open everything he'd buried. The mental crash during and after service nearly finished him. Now he uses his scars to drag young people back from the edge he once lived on. Misunderstood is a sharp, stripped-back lifeline. It is proof that even when you grow up in chaos and learn the streets as your first curriculum, you can still flip the script.
