Böcker av Irwin Brunson

Irwin Brunson was born the same year the Brown vs. Board of Education decision became law of land. That court decision set in motion the reality of the times as he, his brother Billy, sister Debbie, and their neighbors' two children, Michael and Gary Robison, became the first Afro-Americans to enroll in a public white school in the nation's oldest city, St. Augustine, Florida, on August 28, 1963, the same day Dr. Martin L. King's made his "I have a Dream" speech. This book is the story of his early experiences with racism, and ironically, the understanding that racism is a combination of hate, fear, and ignorance personified, limiting human growth, which in turn creates many shades in life. Through art, knowledge, and expression, he creates value that racism can never take away or destroy.
