From his childhood in New Orleans to Howard University as a boy of
fifteen, from his work as a young pastor in Alabama to his
leadership role in the SCLC, from serving as the first Black
congressman from Georgia since Reconstruction to serving as the
Ambassador to the United Nations, from two transformational terms
as mayor of Atlanta to co-chairmanship of the 1996 Summer Olympics
Games, from co-founding Good Works International to promoting human
rights across the globe with the Andrew Young Foundation, The Many
Lives of Andrew Young tells the inspiring, dramatic story of civil
rights hero, congressman, ambassador, mayor, and American icon
Andrew Young. Featuring hundreds of full-color photographs
that capture the extraordinary life and times of Andrew Young and a
captivating narrative by acclaimed Atlanta Journal-Constitution
race reporter Ernie Suggs, filled with personal accounts from
Andrew Young himself, The Many Lives of Andrew Young is both a
tribute to and an essential chronicle of the life of a man whose
activism and service changed the face of America and whose work
continues to reverberate around the world today.
