Event Details
This presentation will tell the story behind our guest, Dr. JW Smith's new autobiography, From the Back of the Bus to the Front of the Classroom. Our presenter is a professor of Speech Communication in the School of Communication Studies at Ohio University.
Please come and enjoy a riveting memoir, evoking a life of vulnerability with candid honesty, documenting the challenges of race and a differently-abled existence. Learn how these issues resulted in more positive outcomes than negative ones. Discover a life-experience seemingly possible only in America, where ultimate success stems from a strong spiritual faith, consistent and contagious family support, along with hard work and perseverance.
