Unsung America
My book is not about heroes.
(It may be a book about sheroes but I will let you decide that).
It is about about courageous people who sometimes made mistakes. People in difficult situations they often did not choose. People who decided to act despite grave risk and uncertainty. People who were not in the right place at the right time. Through their stories, they tell a history of exclusion, courage, resilience and perseverance.
It is a book about pioneers and immigrant trailblazers. Some of them have passed on after making rich contributions. Some of them like each other while some of them cannot tolerate one another. Many are still alive, and continue to battle on for their freedom. The trailblazers in this book continue to be unsung and cast aside in favor of a mainstream narrative that either portrays immigrants as heroes or as villains.
