I was born in 1950 to Jacob and Kathryn Buckwalter, who were missionaries in the state of Kentucky at the time.\u003cp\u003eI graduated from high school in 1968, did not attend college, and went right into the work force. In 1971 I met a man named Rev. Bill Drury, founder of a Christian Youth Organization called Teen Haven. In November of that same year I moved from the peaceful, rolling hills of Lancaster, Pennsylvania into the heart of North Philadelphia to work with him.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI spent seven years as a Bible teacher, camp counselor, rec room supervisor and bus driver. My experiences during that time opened my eyes and heart to a world I never knew existed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen I left Teen Haven and moved as a single woman into the Germantown section of Philly, I met a Black man named Peter. Through many, many long conversations I learned about the history of Blacks in America and before slavery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThirty-six years and two kids later, we are still talking and I have a deep desire to share what I have learned with the hopes of introducing my readers to a whole new world of hope and understanding.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Helping Hands Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47061465202928,"sku":"9781622085996","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781622085996_p0.jpg?v=1763860439","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781622085996","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
