A Ministry Not a Job: Memoirs of a Middle School Teacher

By Levert Hedgemon

In A Ministry. Not a Job: Memoirs of a Middle School Teacher, author Levert Hedgemon, Jr. reflects on his fifty-four-year career as a student, teacher, colleague, and mentor in the Tuscaloosa City Schools. Growing up during the Jim Crow era of segregation, racial tension, social unrest, civil disobedience, and the Civil Rights Movement, which gave rise to integration, Hedgemon chronicles his life and his stellar career as an educator. Knowing the significance of history, and in particular, Black history is the conduit to unveiling a greater understanding and appreciation of our Legacy and Rich Heritage as a people, it is Hedgemon's hope that this book will do just that.
