Larry was shot at 11 years old playing baseball in the wrong area. This was the beginning of a tough life. He discusses how he felt when in Hong Kong with a team of schoolteachers, someone mistook him as the luggage carrier instead of the dean. The story about his and his wife, Peggy, traveling to Asheville, North Carolina to relocate. On the way, they passed many confederate flags. These flags were outward signs of hatred.
Although this is a short book, it is full of inspirational thoughts. I actually read this book twice because I enjoyed it so much. This is a book about race, but it is also a book about the possibilities of a better future.
