Publisher's Synopsis
Sabrena Kelly-Lewis pours her soul
out in this touching and personal
reflection by reengaging the feelings
of hurt, disappointment, loneliness,
and finally forgiveness while growing
up as the only daughter of famed
movie icon and martial artist Jim
Kelly. During the 1970's, Jim Kelly
would star in sixteen movies, and was
special guest for multiple popular
television shows. He was the first
African American martial artist to
star in a major blockbuster movie as
Enter the Dragon, along with the famed
superstars, Bruce Lee and John Saxon.
Kelly-Lewis highlights the significant
spiritual journey she endured growing
up with an absentee father. It is
one thing to grow up not knowing
your parent, but when your parent
is an iconic celebrity figure and
neglects their parental responsibility
to provide any form of assistance,
their negligence creates catastrophic
emotional pains. Her story is not new,
but deserves serious attention to end
the irresponsible behavior of absentee
parents, especially fathers.
