This book traces the life of the author who was born in a rural
obscured Alabama village call Nymph, where abject poverty was met
head on with unrelenting love. One of 12 children, this author
waded through systemic racism and seemingly insurmountable odds to
become the third highest ranking official in the regional city of
Mobile, AL. In his book, Richardson set out to prove once and for
all that there is but one race of people on the face of the earth,
the human race; and that skin or any other color has absolutely no
value in itself. He more than proved that point. As an elected
official, Richardson offered valuable advice to those seeking to be
elected as well as for those already holding office. As world
traveler, Richardson shares that experience with his readers as
well as the art of negotiating and trading in a global marketplace.
Readers can relive life in a rural community and gain experience
from a village that survived slavery and it's aftermath and
produced citizens that excelled to worldwide pro potion. The author
credits his family for providing the inspiration he needed to turn
every obstacle, rock or boulder into stepping stones toward a
brighter future, for himself and all others. He also credits many
others who's ethnicity was different from his, with aiding he and
his family in their struggle to survive the pains of poverty.
Through it all, Richardson makes it clear that he holds absolutely
no animosity toward anyone, past or present; that life, with all of
it's twists and turns, left him with no permanent scars, only love
for every living human being. His title was intended to show how,
with the help of God, his family and many others, he was able to
leave Nymph, settle in Mobile, AL, and represent that city around
the world. He makes the point that God has placed in each of us the
ability to rise above any present or future circumstance. You will
not read his book and not be affected.
