".This autobiography is assembled with the hope that it might provide continued inspiration for our children, and grandchildren to enjoy life, but to be fully prepared for their chosen careers. They should understand that it is important to set goals, and to work hard to achieve these goals. I hope that they can see that the position of a depressed lifestyle is only a dissolvable impediment, not an impenetrable wall, to achieving a determined goal. My constant struggle for equal rights included participation in 'The March on Washington' on August 28, 1963. However, it has always been my premise that one-on-one contact, is a fundamental concept, that augments the overall struggle for understanding, and equality. When education, fair treatment, honest competition, and individual ability flourishes freely, we will see black faces and reciprocal contributions in all walks of American life. To me, that's America." -- from the author's Preface. Purchase with confidence: all books, gradings, and descriptions are rendered the care of a genuine bibliophile.
