See What the End Will Be: A Memoir Narrated by Lavern Hamberlin

by Angela M. Hamberlin

See What the End Will Be is a thoughtfully reminiscent coming-of-age story that follows Lavern Hamberlin’s experiences and those of his family as they build a heritage of faith while overcoming the multitude of obstacles that faced people of color during the civil rights era. Growing up in the Jim Crow era of Fayette, Mississippi, he and his family carved a place for themselves amid growing tensions, hatred, and fear. However, Lavern’s story is not merely dictated by his circumstances, and this memoir is not only written to showcase the unjust nature of the segregated South. His story is something more. His story is mine, yours, and our country’s woven together into a complex reflection of what it means to love and to be loved.
