Mill City Press presents the inspiring life story of Congresswoman Cardiss Collins.
BEAVERCREEK, Ohio, Feb. 24, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Authors Jasmin N. Dobson and Frank E. Dobson, Jr. provide young readers with an example of A Leader With Courage: The Impact Of Congresswoman Cardiss Collins ($19.99, paperback, 9781662882852; $29.99, hard cover, 9781662882869; $8.99, e-book, 9781662882876.
Cardiss Collins didn't start out seeking a career in politics. She saw the void left behind after the death of her husband, Congressman George Collins, and overcame her natural shyness in order to fill it. In the process, Collins made history as the fourth African American woman to serve in Congress, as well as being a devout Christian, mother, and public servant who advocated for families, the poor, and the marginalized.
"This is a book for young readers which provides young people and their parents a sterling example of a leader who overcame obstacles to live out her dreams and her faith to help others," said the authors.
Frank E. Dobson, Jr. and Jasmin Dobson are father-daughter co-authors of the book. Frank is a college professor, writer and scholar who holds a Ph.D. in English. Jasmin is a college administrator with a Master's degree in higher education who also studied film production, creative writing, and photography on the undergraduate level. Through their writing, both plan to tell more stories that inspire others through narratives that show people of modest beginnings whose lives provide examples of courage, determination, and faith.
