Olgen Williams traces his dramatic journey from embittered, drug-using Vietnam veteran to nationally acclaimed neighborhood activist and deputy mayor of Indianapolis, Indiana. His sudden miraculous orientation from drugs and despair to faith and freedom will inspire all those concerned with the social and personal costs and consequences of illegal drugs and drug-related crime. In December 2002, for his crime of having stolen less than eleven dollars while serving as a postal worker in 1971, Olgen Williams received one of seven pardons granted by President George W. Bush. Today, Olgen Williams is firmly grounded in family, faith, and neighborhood in Indianapolis, Indiana, where he served for thirteen years as director of Christamore House, a community center in the settlement house tradition. He has pioneered and nurtured many programs--ranging from carpentry to theater, from community policing to parenting and seniors programming--that serve the diverse needs of a multiethnic inner-city neighborhood. His book is not only the story of an extraordinary life-in-progress but also a working handbook for neighborhood activism and transformation.
