“One In A Million” Book Signing
Dr. Frank Mason, author of “One In A Million” will be signing and reading from his debut book.
This biography, penned with visceral authenticity, chronicles his metamorphosis from a life marked by violence and loss to ultimately illuminating his own road to enlightenment and societal contribution as a minster and a changemaker.
Witness the transformation as Frank Mason navigates a path littered with systemic barriers, ultimately proving that even against the harrowing odds faced by black men in mid-20th century America, greatness is not just possible, its within reach. For anyone who has ever felt like the underdog this story serves as a powerful reminder that success is not determined by the hand you’re dealt, but by how you play your cards.
