Are you living a life filled with anger and resentment, constantly plagued by a painful past? 

Do you want to, once and for all, let go of those emotions that are poisoning your life?  Alexander’s memoir chronicles his life from 1954 to 2005 where he experienced, first-hand, social change that shaped our country’s ideals.  From pre and post segregation; the stirrings of Martin Luther King’s promise and tragic death; and Malcolm X’s rise to power with the Black Panther Party, Alexander recounts those benchmarks in history and interweaves them brilliantly with how they affected his life.  After years of harboring a deep resentment and anger, attending twelve step meetings and languishing in mental health institutions, through the grace of God, he was able to embrace a life filled with joy, love, hope and redemption.
