" A Mission From God" is a narrative of turbulent, history-changing events, and encounters with striking American characters like Martin Luther King, Jr., Robert F. Kennedy, Mary McCloud Bethune, segregationist Mississippi Governor Ross Barnett, Thurgood Marshall, former Klan leader David Duke, and the legendary Medgar Evers.
In "A Mission From God" we see how Meredith emerges as a former member of US Air Force who simply wants an education in his home state. It was James Meredith who waged the legal battle with the University of Mississippi which forced the institution to desegregate.
September 2012 will mark the 50th Anniversary of the integration of the University of Mississippi, Meredith's story becomes a powerful illuminating message--a manifesto for a better world.
