Attempting a memoir at any stage or age in one's life is a mountain of a project. With its myriad of experiences, Dr. Terence Hicks' life takes one of a journey that is both enlightening and inspiring. From Prince Edward County, Virginia to a global world, Dr. Hicks shares his experiences for others to learn and be comforted as students, faculty, and leaders. His vulnerability and honesty are refreshing to read. As each chapter unfolds, one anticipates the next example of the challenges and successes that have caused this outstanding person to keep true to his life purpose. Dr. Hicks' purpose is clearly to shed light on the disparities and inequities of African Americans in education and the greater community. Given the context of the events happening in the United States and the world, His memoir reminds us that we all have a charge to keep and are responsible to exhaust, the gifts we were given to make the world a better place than how we have found it. -- Lemuel W. Watson, Indiana University
