Sobre IBD

Largely a first person narrative accompanied by focused, honest question and answers and star studded tributes, this 95 year old WWII veteran tells his story from Orphan to Soke. Soke is the title given to a venerable teacher of martial arts who has been granted permission to start his own style of teaching. This story is made more poignant by the fact that this Journey from Orphan intersects directly with prime objectives of Heroes’ Hearts Inc, a non-profit with the motto: Do Something Good, and a mission to 'oppose discrimination and abuse in all forms.' The author, Soke Frederick Douglas Peterson is a black American hero, who served at the end of WWII and whose story parallels in poignancy the ongoing American conflict of systemic racism, as well as how one young black orphan rose beyond his limitations to become a model of resiliency.  3
