Description

The Genesis And Exodus Of Now is an eye witness true account of the struggle of blacks in Mobile, AL to be free, from 1968 to 1974. This freedom movement was called Neighborhood Organized Workers (NOW) and was led by two brave fearless leaders, Noble C. Beasley and James H. Finley. The author of this book, Fredrick Douglas Richardson, Jr. was apart of NOW and was himself caught up in the eye of the vicious storm of opposition against extending freedom to Blacks in Mobile, AL at all cost. The Mobile story is really an American story. It is a story of the powerless confronting the bound and determined powerful, head on, in their nonviolent demand for freedom and opportunity. Might was used to deny rights. Beasley and Finley were determined, in the face of insurmountable opposition, to lead the people of color, in Mobile, AL, to freedom. This book will show that the strategies used by NOW preempted and Civil Rights organization in America. Richardson describes the turn of events daily in this book, and named those who joined those on the side of injustice. Like Nelson Mandela, Beasley eventually was arrested by the Feds on a false drug conspiracy charge, sentenced to life, without parole, served a total of 28 years as a political prisoner, but thank God he is free today. This book details Beasley's life and that of Dr. James Finley. Herein is a literary snapshot of an American city fighting to preserve the past, while it's minority citizens refused to except nothing less than freedom. The Mobile, AL story is an attest to the progress made in America regarding inclusion. However, the Mobile story never made the front pages of national news papers because the freedom movement in Mobile started after the death of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. This book will document this movement and prove the freedom struggle in Mobile was no less intense. This book should be a required reading for every student in middle school and above and indeed every adult. There are few published eyewitness accounts to the actual Civil Rights struggle. This book is one and is hereby a rarity. It is a powerful moving account of an era America refuses to embrace, in her text books. But no one reading this book can ignore the value of Richardson's eyewitness account of America at her worse. On the other hand, you can't deny the tremendous progress this city and nation have made, in embracing diversity. This book is a handbook to the Civil Rights struggle.
