I am the writer of this story. I am the reporter of these events.

"I CAN DO IT, I WANT TO FLY!" started out as one of the bedtime stories I would tell my youngest son. It evolved over time and became a lesson on the power of the words can or can't. There were times the story was shorter than the previous time I told it and times I would elaborate details depending on how enthused I was about story time. As a busy Dad, I looked forward to this time of night. I hope this story helps empower your child with a lesson that can be applied in all phases of life.

From the time I met her over forty years ago, I was fascinated by Dr. Jones' insight to capture Wright's geniousness and the statement he made about "Black life" in America and its relationship to the African diaspora. At a time when it was not widely recognized in closed shop literary circles, she highlighted her subject's fixation on the aberrant behaviors of young Black men. Today, largely because of the social conditions in America, Wright's writings have come to past, and as a conclusion of her scholarship, we now dare to say out loud, "there is a 'Bigger Thomas' on every corner in America." Inspired by growing up in the all Black Douglass community of Memphis, TN, Dr. Jones' focus on gender studies offers a fresh take on never heretofore discussed issues that portray Wright's treatment of women. As a native Mississippian, I was immersed in racism, sexism, and many obstacles African American women faced. For me, Dr. Jones' work makes it all "up close and personal."-Carolyn Bell, MS, Harvard School of Public Health
