About this listen

At 14, Richard (Ricky) Abercrombie was besieged by prejudice because of his multi-racial background, and angered by unsatisfactory answers to his heartfelt questions about religious truth. The time was 1960, and the place was Greenville, South Carolina. Ricky began carrying a gun, skipping school, and numbing his painful emotions with alcohol. His parents were worried and his future looked bleak. What happened next - an invitation to a birthday party at the home of a Bahá’í family - changed his life forever. Ricky became intrigued by Bahá’í teachings on racial equality, peaceful strategies for social justice, and the fundamental unity of religion.
