Get Out Of Jena takes a look into the conditions that makes for racial divides to persist in any modern day American society that refuses to acknowledge the contributions that any race makes to that society. Through the real life experiences of a family from LaSalle Parish, Louisiana- where Jena is the parish seat- we can see how such conditions- when ignored- can create a hostile situation. In North American society we cannot over look the crippling effects of slaverys contribution to these conditions. How it affects economic struggles, attitudes and the pride of a people, on both sides of the color line. Get Out Of Jena does not lay the responsibility to change these conditions on the shoulders of any one race or people. Therefore the adults of both sides contribute to these conditions, either by submission or omission. In the end we will see how it is the youth that pay a bigger price for the arrogance of those conditioned adults. The price they pay for their refusal to acknowledge the importance of all its citizens. The question this book asks is can any of us run away from that responsibility, no matter how large or small we think our responsibility is. And if we do run away, where would we go, and will we ever be called back to deal with the conditions we left behind.

The purpose of my book, The Tip of the Arrow, A Study in Leadership, is to share with young people of today and tomorrow the story of young people like me at age sixteen as the blueprint of the Selma Student Nonviolent Civil Rights movement, a significant impacting factor in the passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act and the dominating influence leading to the passage of the 1965 Voting Rights Act. On February 24, 2016, during a ceremony awarding the Congressional Gold Medal at the US Capitol in Washington, DC, I beamed with personal pride upon hearing Speaker Paul Ryan's statement that Congress decided to bestow the award to the foot soldiers because their contribution to our country was so great that they deserved the highest honor in our possession, the Congressional Gold Medal. The Tip of the Arrow is our story.

And I'm Glad: An Oral History of Edisto Island explores the island's history through the eyes and in the voices of two Edisto farmers, Sam Gadsden and Bubberson Brown, who grew up, labored, raised families, and made their lives on the island. These narratives, tracing the arrival of the first black pioneers, the subsequent slave culture during the 1800s, the difficulties of Reconstruction, to the Edisto of the twentieth century, document both the African-American legacy of the island and the personal struggles of two black men. Overcoming the unpredictability of the Lowcountry's weather, such as the historic Hurricane of 1893 and subsequent storms, the hardships of Depression-era America, and the double standards of a pre-Civil Rights South, Gadsden and Brown detail triumphant lives full of service, hard work, good humor, and faith.

More than sixty-five years after the end of the American Civil War, African-Americans still dealt with the debilitating poverty of sharecropping and the Depression, and the violence of the Ku Klux Klan during the 1930s. Two African-American brothers, James and Robert Paschal, persevered despite these limitations and realized their dreams through years of hard work and determination. Serving Up Hope and Freedom is the moving true story of the Paschal brothers from Georgia. Fighting against the odds of a sharecropping life, James and Robert went on to become millionaires, philanthropists, world-renowned restaurant/hotel owners, and leaders in the struggle for civil rights. As told by James Paschal, this memoir showcases the brothers' extraordinary devotion to making a difference in the world, inspiring others to tap into the unlimited power of their dreams. Their legacy will continue to provide hope, inspiration, and encouragement for future generations.
