Same Kind of Different as Me

In this moving book Denver Moore, a homeless black man, and Ron Hall, a rich white man whose wife encourages him to help in a soup kitchen, overcome their prejudices, become friends, and help each other. As a result they also help many others. Lynn Vincent does a great job of combining the information given to her by both men into an inspiring whole and, as a result, she too is touching many lives. Readers of "Same Kind of Different as Me" may go on to do the same. I recommend it.

Even a few people can make a big difference.
