Book Synopsis
From humble beginnings to filling the shoes made for a real leader, Daude Sherrills takes us on a remarkable journey of his life that reveals his destiny. From day one, the meaning of his name etched out his path and formed his future.
Told in the 300+ pages of the book, Daude gets up close and personal about his upbringing, his childhood, his family life, gangs, and becoming a man. We learn of the turning point in his life that changed the destructive course he was taking and propelled him on the path he was destined to travel.
Letting his feelings, thoughts, and concerns unfold on the pages, we come to see and know Daude as only a select few others have been privy to see him; but more so, we see the Daude that many have been fortunate to encounter.
With passion, feeling, and sincerity, we come to the victorious highlight of his achievements…the Watts Gang Truce. Held dear in his heart, the Watts Gang Truce and the 1992 Peace Treaty is told in a never before heard manner direct from the author’s mouth.
What you THOUGHT you knew about gangs, drugs, violence, social injustice, economic disparity, and the struggles of those in underserved communities will be questioned. This book will enlighten you with facts.
