This was an extremely good read. What an opportunity it was to read this book. I resonate with Poitier, because I have always had it in me to accomplish things in life with a detached perspective, while also in a practical manner. His background as a Bahamian immigrant set him apart from the general African American population, yet... he was able to break ground as being the first African American to win an oscar. Was very inspired by his integrity and wisdom. This book isn't just written about Poitier, it's written about any human being who chooses to live outside the box and still accomplish great things by being good to others and having faith in spiritual presence.
