    This is my journey from an abandoned street kid in South Korea to a U.S. citizen with a purpose designed by God. My parents left me to Buddha Temple age three, ran away age 5 on street to search for them. I traveled on foot, buses and trains. I ate off of garbage cans and on the ground. Slept on the ground, bus and train stations. As a boy growing up on the streets and orphanages I was abuse, starved, sick with polio and fell off wall. Then adopted to U.S. age 7 to experience new life with family but turn into many more challenges and difficulties like abuse, depression, suicides, addictions and anger. Later in my adulthood I find healing and peace within. This is God's story through me as much as it is my story! It's why I'm still alive!

    Days of Fear exposes the shocking story of a gruesome 1914 murder in St. Petersburg, Florida and the calculated lynching of the Black man accused. Who killed Frank Sherman with a shotgun blast inches from his head? What in the restless photographer's life led to his bloody end? And whydid powerful men decide John Evans had to die for the crime? This book explores true-crime events buried for decades. It tells of the friendless Evans torn from his jail cell, marched down the main street, strung by his neck from a pole, and riddled with gunfire from men, women, and children. It suggests that someone close to Sherman killed him, igniting three days of brutality in a town that cherished its reputation as a placid and profitable resort. Days of Fear describes in detail St. Petersburg as it existed more than a century ago - a growing waterfront community particularly comfortable for white people but often difficult for Black people. It tells a grim story the authors hope is relevant to the twenty-first century's periodic mob violence and domestic terrorism.
