Shirley Chisholm lived most of her life in secrecy and made a special effort to protect herself from the public, especially her personal and private life. She lived a very painful and lonely life surrounded by few friends and family. When Congresswoman Chisholm retired as a politician in 1983, she completely removed herself from political life. Hundreds of mass media people, film writers, book publishing companies, producers and authors have sought information about her personal and private life. Many of them offered $25,000 to $50,000 for this information. This book can serve as a resource of information on how to survive in a racist, sexist and political environment as a woman. It is a must read to inspire, teach and educate people of all races about the life and legacy of a great American. The book addresses the early life of Congresswoman Chisholm's birth on November 30, 1924 in the Bedford-Stuyvesant community of Brooklyn, New York to her death in Ormond Beach, Florida on January 1, 2005.
