FROM THE AUTHOR'S LATE FRIEND, MS. CICELY TYSON:
“I have not been so moved by a story since reading Alex’s [Haley] book, Roots. When the film is made, I’m laying claim to the role of Aunt Rose.” —Cicely Tyson

Where Was God on May 15, 1974?
This question may strike you as sacrilegious, but you were not there on May 15, 1974. Only one other person was there when twelve-year-old Deborah Yvonne Davis lived the last day of her first life.
On that sweltering but beautiful 104-degree day in Reedville, Arkansas, Deborah Yvonne Davis—a poor, rural, Arkansas Baptist preacher’s second of three daughters—saw her first life end during a walk home from school down dusty Crispus Attucks Road. She had no one else to turn to save God Almighty. No one answered.
