Description

In Alabama Village, an impoverished and often violent neighbourhood south of Mobile, the children no longer flinch at the eruption of gunshots. To them, its just another day. In this community, few things last the loss of life is relentless, and relief efforts come and go. But John and Dolores Eads, a devout Christian couple who established Light of the Village church, stay. They spread their mission lead with love, faith, and consistency and dont condemn or judge. In interlacing chapters, awardwinning journalist J. Malcolm Garcia follows the lives of the Alabama Village community and the kids who grew up at Light of the Village church. DaCino Dees saw his first shooting at eight years old and now works at Light of the Village Aaron Billy Boy Amison has been dreaming about dead people since he was little and has been in and out of jail since he was fourteen Jesenda Brown hopes to escape poverty by starting her own cleaning business and although Corey Bigg Man Davis has accrued exuberant wealth from unknown sources, his personality is marked by his kindhearted generosity. These striking, raw, and humanising portraits, among others, showcase the Village and its people, in all its devastation and resilient determination. Alabama Village is an ode to communities and the individual narratives that make them whole.
