The Audacity of Resilience

Welcome our newest published author, Pitman Kennedy! Amidst the turmoil of America, this book is of hope and determination. Not only did this man survive a civil war as a child, he published a book during a pandemic and riots. His resilience is admirable and speaks to the courage we all need today.

“The Audacity of Resilience: A Refugee Memoir,” is an inspirational story of a man who escaped war torn Liberia to eventually find asylum in America. However, it was not an easy road to travel. As a child, it took Pitman and his family almost two months to walk on foot from their country into Sierra Leon. With nothing but the clothes on their backs, they had to hide from rebels who were on a rampage amputating and murdering anyone who they thought were connected to the government. In his debut book, Kennedy takes you along his journey of being a refugee from a 3rd world country to becoming a successful businessman in the states. Find it on Amazon:
