| Publisher Description: 50 Undefeated expands the author's book Undefeated with a new preface, updated information, new photos and five more stories of people who have overcome prejudice, bullying and oppression. This collection tells the true and inspiring stories of 50 individuals who have triumphed in the face of daunting challenges. Dismissed because of their religion, demeaned because of their gender, or persecuted for their race, they come a variety of backgrounds. A Christian in one nation's majority may be persecuted in another land. The same applies to a Jew or a Pagan. What of the atheist and transgender individuals? Their stories are drawn from past and present, from the realms of history, sports and politics. They testify that bigotry, a false attitude based on false distinctions, in truth knows no bounds ... but neither does the human spirit. Join the author on a journey through a diverse spectrum of stories that spotlight our shared humanity and celebrate the courage of women and men who sought to defend it, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. |
