Review
Description
the violence, racism, and segregation of his Georgia home by joining the navy
during the Second World War. But tragedy strikes the USS Truxtun one February
night off the southeastern coast of Newfoundland, and Lanier is the lone Black
survivor of the terrible shipwreck. The community’s kindness and humanity brings
him back to health and changes his outlook on life. He would go on to march for
Black rights with Martin Luther King, and remained forever grateful to the small
town of St. Lawrence, Newfoundland.
