You can read it. You can take or talk it but can you walk it? This is not just a question but a statement of attitude, character, and morals! In some instances, this method of provoking a response depends on culture, circumstances, race, financial standings, education, mind-set and maturity! This month of March brings all of that into focus as I think back and wonder how, we could envision the results or even phantom the consequences of our planning such an event.

About the Book
Come with me on a journey back to March 1961. The days of uncertainty, fear, and determination are outlined in a day by day experience. Yesteryear… was where it started, in terms of remembrances. Today, there is an urgency to redirect the "thinking" to self- understanding, directions and possibilities!!!! I am excited about my mission and being a part of this emerging "mind-set"!!! Goal: enlighten "nationally" and direct the re-education close to our roots! We can move forward, but we must look back seeing from where we came; assess where we are on the road to making the trip of full appreciation by taking a part of the process and making it a personal quest and journey!
