Making Do: Growing Up Colored In the Jim Crow South During the Great

Description: In the midst of the turbulent 1940's a young black couple find their future goals, livelihoods and destinies meet in an unexpected way, on the streets of Bessemer, Alabama. However, they must first confront the very tangible fears of the Jim Crow south, the Great Depression and their nation poised on the brink of World War II, to realize what they seek. While on this journey, they find that courage will come from the legacy of their families, support of friends and a strong faith in God. This courage allows them to find love by winning a triple victory over fear: abroad, at home and within themselves! This historical fiction drama is a story of how family and relationships help to develop a strong faith in God. It is more than a romance, it is an inspirational, feel good story of how so many African American's created a path for their future generations with grit and commitment so that they would succeed and overcome. Josan Wright Callender, a fourth-generation storyteller from a family of teachers, graduated from Wayne State University and California State University, Northridge. After completing her master's degree in education leadership and special education administration, Callender was blessed with the opportunity to become a member of the Writers Guild of America West and earn her National Board Certification as a teacher in the same year! Currently Callender spends her mornings writing and the rest of the day relaxing at the beach with her husband, Doug, reading feel good books, cooking up new keto meals, and traveling. God is good!
