Deeds, Not Words
Big Willie's story unfolds from two perspectives; that of the "larger than life" character, and the truth of the real man. While some time is devoted to questioning whether the persona he portrayed was based on a lie, the reality is that Willie was a man of deeds far more than words. As my grandmother used to say, "A man of words and not deeds is like a garden full of weeds." There are far too many people who use a false narrative about themselves to achieve selfish ends; today more than ever. Willie did it to achieve true brotherhood at a place and time when nothing else was working. There are no weeds in Big WIllie Robinson's garden, only the fruits of an unselfish man for all to share.Read full review »
