This is a true story (my story) written to prove that healing is possible for all Victims of abuse; for an abuser, forgiveness can also be found if they admit their crime and ask to be forgiven. This book is not a plea for sympathy. My goal is awareness and anger. Yours and mine at the chain of injustice and destruction brought on by any abuse. Without healing, generations will suffer the effects of ONE act of child abuse. Our anger united and properly channeled can bring about positive changes. Chains Can Be Broken is for anyone who has, or is acquainted with someone who has lived through the chaos of abuse; physical, mental, sexual, spiritual and substance, spiraled to the depths of hell to which these things led to finally emerge into the world of sanity, reality and light. Today's child abuse and sexual assault laws are merely a slap on the wrist for the abuser. The abused are sentenced to life imprisoned in their violated mind and body watching their identity slowly fade away. These laws tell the victim's that what happened to them is acceptable in the eyes of the law.
Jim Godfrey’s cartoons have been delighting readers of Wesley Memorial’s quarterly church newsletter for many years. As lockdown struck, we had just received the most recent edition from the printers and immediately saw that to keep in touch with members and friends more regularly, we were going to have to ‘go digital’. Since 31st March 2020, Jim has produced a superb cartoon for each edition of the new Wesley Mem Weekly, reflecting the state of the world and uncannily expressing the mood of many of us at the same time. While the email distribution list for the newsletter is quite long, we feel a much wider audience would appreciate Jim’s cartoons. We hope you enjoy them as much as we do.
This volume presents fifteen chapters of biography of African American and black champions and challengers of the early prize ring. They range from Tom Molineaux, a slave who won freedom and fame in the ring in the early 1800s; to Joe Gans, the first African American world champion; to the flamboyant Jack Johnson, deemed such a threat to white society that film of his defeat of former champion and "Great White Hope" Jim Jeffries was banned across much of the country. Photographs, period drawings, cartoons, and fight posters enhance the biographies. Round-by-round coverage of select historic fights is included, as is a foreword by Hall-of-Fame boxing announcer Al Bernstein.
