SUMMARY:A Tale of Courage and Triumph
DESCRIPTION:What might you do if you didn’t believe the limits others placed on you? Who might you be if nobody told you who you’re supposed to be? \nAt a Book Review Breakfast on Monday\, Dec. 1\, Dana King\, local artist and sculptor\, will review “All Blood Runs Red\,” by Phil Keith and Tom Clavin\, the story of one man who ignored racial assumptions and cultural limits. Sponsored by the local branch of the American Association of University Women\, the Book Review Breakfast begins at 9:30am in the Richardson Center on the campus of Indian River State College in Vero Beach. The event is free and open to the public. \n“All Blood Runs Red” is the inspiring story of Eugene Bullard\, an American hero; it is both a thought-provoking chronicle of the 20th century and a portrait of a man who came from nothing and by his own courage\, determination\, gumption\, intelligence and luck forged a legendary life. The son of a former slave and an indigenous Creek woman\, Bullard fled home at age 11 to escape the racial hostility of his Georgia community. When his journey led him to Europe\, he garnered worldwide fame as a boxer\, and later\, during World War I\, as the first African American fighter pilot in history. \nDana King is a classical figurative sculptor who creates public monuments of Black Bodies in Bronze. She won an Artadia Award in 2021 and was a 2021-22 California Art Council Fellow. She is a former three-term trustee at the Oakland Museum of California. King also traveled the world as a broadcast journalist for 25 years\, garnering five Emmys\, two Edward R. Murrow Awards and two Gracie Awards\, mainly for international reporting. \nThe Book Review Breakfast is free and open to the public\, and people are encouraged to bring new or gently used children’s books to help stock the four Little Free Libraries that AAUW-Vero Beach maintains. AAUW-Vero Beach is a 501(c)3 charitable organization.
