What better way to learn history, than through the eyes of those who lived it? Wade Hudson’s firsthand account of growing up in Louisiana during the Jim Crow laws is powerful!

Publisher's Description of Defiant: Growing Up in the Jim Crow South
Born in 1946 in Mansfield, Louisiana, Wade
Hudson came of age against the backdrop of the civil rights movement.
From their home on Mary Street, his close-knit family watched as the
country grappled with desegregation; as the Klan targeted the 16th
Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama; and as systemic racism
struck across the nation and in their hometown.
Amidst it all, Wade was growing up—getting into scuffles, playing baseball, immersing himself in his church community, and starting to write. Most important, Wade learned how to find his voice and use it. From his family, his community, and his college classmates, Wade learned the importance of fighting for change by confronting the laws and customs that marginalized and demeaned people.
This powerful memoir reveals the struggles, joys, love, and ongoing resilience that it took to grow up Black in segregated America, and the lessons that carry over to our fight for a better future.
