I Will Not Fear: My Story of a Lifetime of Building Faith Under Fire by Melba Pattillo Beals
While her white schoolmates were planning their senior prom, Melba was facing the business en of a double-barreled shotgun, being threatened with lynching by rope-carrying tormentors, and learning how to outrun white supremacists who were ready to kill her rather than sit beside her in a classroom. Only her faith in God sustained her during her darkest days and helped her become a civil rights warrior, an NBC television news reporter, a magazine writer, a professor, a wife, and a mother.
In I Will Not Fear, Beals takes you on an unforgettable journey through terror, oppression, and persecution, highlighting the kind of faith we all need to survive in a world full of heartbreak and anger. She shows how the deep faith we develop during our most difficult moments is the kind of faith that can change our families, our communities, and even the world
Encouraging and inspiring, her story offers hope that faith is the solution to the pervasive hopelessness of our current culture.
