Book excerpt: Down Through the Years is an inspirational presentation of the personal experiences of three-term Council President Emeritus of the City of Detroit, Erma Henderson. Erma’s life of spiritual development, social action, and political achievement from her modest beginnings in Detroit’s “Black Bottom” neighborhood, is a powerful demonstration that any person has the potential to succeed and benefit the world. Her genuine warmth and sincerity has earned her the title of “Mother Henderson” to so many citizens of Detroit and the world. This is an important book for our time. It is a reflection of what America has come through. It is an inspiration to readers of all races in America, and to men and women. It is a door to the past for today’s youth, to guide them on how to see problems, and to empower everyone to take charge of their own life. It puts forth a vision for the future, a vision manifested by this woman who has lived through many experiences, who knows where we, as Detroiters and as Americans, have come from, and where we can go. But most importantly, it is the story of the remarkable life of an amazing woman.
