Synopsis

The Up Side Of Down is a compilation of writings that came out of my personal experiences, spiritual revealings and having a heart that is touched by the pain of others. While our experiences may be different, I believe that upon closer examining, we may find that we are more alike than our differences lead us to believe. Since the release of my book in 2006, I am delighted to say that it has touched the lives of many people in a profound way. I sent copies to our troops in Afghanistan and Iraq. People on the East Coast, West Coast, down South and here in New York have been blessed by my work. Many sick in hospitals, some who have lost loved ones, the young that are trying to keep their heads above water and those needing encouragement love it. People of all ages and races have sent copies of my book to their loved ones. I was notified by one of New York's finast Podiatrist, that his staff nurse read excerpts from my book to his paitents as he performs surgery. The writings "A Mother Knows" and "A Father Knows" help people forgive themselves for mistakes made that they cannot now ask their parents forgiveness, since the parents are deceased. "Meet Me In The Cracks Of Life", will prove you and those who claim they support you. "Beyond The Game" is dedicated to the survivors of Hurricane Katrina and Rita. It encourages togetherness at all times and not just when a crisis occur. In times like these, "The Up Side Of Down" will help you see that there is an up side even to down. I welcome you to share my world, my heartbeat and my vision. You see, I believe in writing out side of the box.

Biographie de l'auteur

Born Alice Beatrice Nixon on February 23, 1951 in Montgomery, Alabama, to Laura and Samuel Nixon. She is the youngest of four children, biological mother of six, mother of one grafted in and grandmother of five. Alice was privileged to participate in the Freedom Marches of the 60's. At approximately age 12 she participated in the Selma to Montgomery, Alabama march. Her mother housed freedom marchers from the North at 952 Key Street in Montgomery. Bonnie and Larry were Caucasian and Jerry was Asian. She washed the blood from Jerry's shirt after his head was split open. She wants the world, Asians and Blacks to know that Asians stood with Blacks and Whites in the fight for Civil Rights. This is important in the healing process of the segment of Asians and Blacks that look at each other with disdain. Jerry was there. He looked at us and not down upon us. He was housed by colored folks, lived with Negroes and almost lost his life for a belief that all people deserved to be free. Her mother supported the Bus Boycott of the 1950's after the arrest of Mrs. Rosa Parks. In October 1966 she relocated to New York alone and at the age of fifteen. On December 28, 1967 at the age of 16 she was "married to" Samuel Barr Jr., whom she divorced in 1994 after years of severe physical and mental abuse.
