In The Name Of My Father: Requiem and Renewal in the Shadow of Wall Street, in the Light of a Georgia Spring
In
the Deep South, the dark hue of my father's Native American skin marked
him for abuse by belligerent locals. Although he had been deprived of
detailed knowledge of his ancestry, his Comanche blood resisted
intimidation. His tormentors wounded him deeply, but they also succeeded
in opening deep reservoirs of ancestral rage. My father harbored an
abiding animus to bullies--a trait he bequeathed to me by blood &
circumstance.
