l love what Kenneth Braswell did with this book. It reminds me of the household I grew up in. My father was a union delegate and community activist who always exposed us to the plight of others that were in some sort of struggle, be it political, religious, racial or economic and preached to us about our role in making a positive difference. ' Daddy There's A Noise Outside' is a perfect starter kit for parents who want to plant those activist seeds in their children.
