Over the River: My Journey Home - Paperback

by James Melvin Proctor (Author)

This is a moving life-story that will encourage, uplift, and motivate the reader to cross over the river from struggles to triumphs.
The Aucilla River symbolizes a physical barrier, separated families, traditions and cultures.
This journey over the river is a prime example of upward mobility. The up-times have outnumbered the down-times. Dr. Proctor journeyed from preparation for ministry to equipping others for ministry.
The journey over the river takes him through the stinging days of segregation and Jim Crow; from separate, but equal and all the way through desegregation.
Travel with Dr. Proctor as he crosses the river from failure to success; from hardship to survival; from challenges to accomplishments; and from struggles to triumph. He endured hostile work environments and overt racism. But he not only survived, he thrived. Come and take a journey with him over the river.
