Description
From Leonard Scovens ---- I am an incarcerated multi-award winning author, activist, advocate, entrepreneur and educator in search of a person who will accept a percentage stake in helping me re-institute the publication of my award winning book Wildflowers in the Median. The book has led to my and my co-author, Agnes Furey's, appearances in several documentaries about restorative justice. Those films, HUMAN, Another Justice, and The Other Way continue to be shown to international audiences. The book has also been translated into Portuguese and French for international releases by foreign publishing houses.
The purpose of the book's publication is for a new campaign focused on placing it in American libraries. The funds are going toward the establishment of two college scholarships to be awarded annually to winning essayists--The Agnes Furey Scholarship and the Joan D Livezey Scholarship. The long term vision is to establish a residential home for abused women and children, AHGnes' House, The Agnes Furey Center for Trauma Informed Care and Restorative Justice and The Joan D Livezey Education Zone in Florida.
The former publishing company, Rusted Earth, is defunct and I am establishing The AHG Irrevokable Family Trust to continue the work Ms. Furey and I started by sharing our story.
