Although she was raised in an Orthodox Jewish family, she married a black man, and then went on the raise all her children as Christians. Although facing adversity for these reasons, James McBride and his siblings still became successful, mostly because of the strength his mother provided for his family.

Parents make the first step in creating adversity for their children. My mother took her first step when she was eighteen years old. Breaking her family’s hearts and leaving to drive across the country with her best friend, my mother set out on her first real adventure.
