by Kenneth F. Conklin (Author)
From the segregated mountains of Virginia to Olympic glory and a landmark civil rights victory discover the incredible true story of Norvel Lee, a hero history almost forgot.
Born into the Jim Crow South, Norvel Lee grew up knowing the weight of discrimination but he refused to let it define him. From his humble beginnings in the mountains of Virginia, he became a Tuskegee Airman, national boxing champion, and two-time U.S. Olympian.
In 1948, his quiet act of defiance sitting in the "white" section of a segregated train led to an arrest that would spark a Virginia Supreme Court case and challenge the foundation of segregation in America.
NORVEL: An American Hero is a meticulously researched true story of courage, determination, and the power of standing up for what's right. Kenneth F. Conklin brings Norvel's legacy to life with the depth of a historian and the heart of a poet.
Perfect for readers who love:
- Untold stories of the Tuskegee Airmen
- Civil rights pioneers who made history before the movement began
- Boxing legends and inspirational American heroes
"A powerful and moving tribute to an extraordinary man whose quiet bravery helped change America."
