Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This is an amazing story based on Kossula's memories of his long-ago life in his beloved Africa. Through Kossula and the other's resilience, they not only survived the horrific Middle Passage on the last known slave ship, the Clotilda, but slavery, the American Civil War, the Reconstruction of Alabama, and the Jim Crow period. After the American Civil War and the Emancipation Proclamation, Kossula and the newly freed Africans tried, but failed to return to their beloved homeland, Africa. The group reunited from various plantations, alongside American-born, formerly enslaved men, women, and children. The Africans bought land and formed their own self-sufficient world in this unique cultural section of Mobile, Alabama, now known as Africatown. The Founders appointed tribal leaders and governed Africatown according to customary African laws, spoke their own regional language, kept their own customs, used African irrigation and gardening techniques from Africa, and built their own social structures. Always proud of their African roots, they passed their African memories and rich culture on to their generation. This book will take young readers on an exciting journey. They will learn various facts about the young boy, Kossula, and his life in West Africa. This story will give them a better understanding and an appreciation of our African history while embracing our rich African heritage. I have also added a family tree in the book for children. This is a great way to get kids involved and interested in their family history. This book will be an essential addition to your library and to your family's book collection, and it is certain to inspire our children for years to come. Ten percent of all the proceeds from the book will be donated to Africatown's Non-profit Organizations. Jones, Hank (illustrator).…

For those who feel like you just can't go on and you want to give up, this book is for you. I've had to deal with being bullied and abuse to the point where I tried to commit suicide, so I know what you're going through because I've been through it. I feel if my story is told it can help someone, when you read what I've been through and how God healed me and restored me that it will give you hope in knowing God will do it for you as well. No matter how broken you may feel there is nothing too hard for God.I live in Florida, haven't been incarcerated in fifteen years. I'm divorced, I have two adult daughters and is now raising my two grandsons. I love fishing, reading, riding motorcycles, cooking and most of all serving God. Along the way people have given up on me and some said I'd never amount to anything or won't ever change. But God.…
