Opis

Every young person needs a role model, coach, mentor or friend who believes in them and insists that they believe in themselves. Authors Anthony James and Ken Chapman share the stories of twenty-eight outstanding African-Americans who faced head on the challenges of realizing their potential and chose to make a difference in the lives of their families, their communities, and their world. Their stories, struggles, and strengths will inspire and empower a younger generation to discipline themselves and act with decisiveness to better our world. These African-American leaders often acted in unexpected ways and their examples challenge adults to provide a "shoulder" for a young to stand on.
