From Shackles to Stature: "The Price of Freedom" Illuminates the Soul of Perseverance
A riveting memoir of hardship, heritage, and the indomitable spirit to rise—available now on Amazon

ATLANTA, GA – In a nation still wrestling with the shadows of its past, Alice Faye Wimberly emerges with a memoir that doesn’t whisper—but roars. The Price of Freedom is more than just a personal history—it’s an unapologetic odyssey through poverty, prejudice, and perseverance, a deeply moving narrative penned with the raw honesty only a fully lived life can afford.

From the dirt floors of a shack in the Jim Crow South to the symbolic heights of the Statue of Liberty, Wimberly chronicles her journey with unflinching candor and poetic resonance. Her story is a tribute to those who came before—trailblazers who endured humiliation, violence, and systemic oppression so that others could walk upright. Through evocative storytelling, she dares the reader to remember, to reflect, and above all, to rise.

A Voice That Echoes Generations

Wimberly invites readers to traverse the narrow paths of back wood farm life, to feel the hunger in their stomachs, the chill through the cracks in the floorboards, and the fire of ambition that no cold night could extinguish. With vivid recollections of dodging the Ku Klux Klan, fighting for education, and standing her ground as a Black woman in a system designed to hold her down, this book is not just memoir—it’s a manifesto.

“We were not allowed to forget who we were…,” Wimberly writes. “But we could decide who we would become.”

Her words are carved from a lived reality—no pretense, no fiction. It’s a rallying cry for self-worth, dignity, and the power of a determined mind.

Why This Book Matters Now

In a time when the national dialogue flirts with regression and division, The Price of Freedom arrives as a timely reminder that the personnel are always political—and that liberation begins in the mind. Wimberly speaks not just to African Americans, but to every soul who has felt unseen, unheard, or unworthy. This is not a book about victimhood, it’s a testament to victory.

From generations who labored for pennies to descendants dreaming of degrees and careers, Wimberly’s message rings clear: freedom isn’t granted—it’s earned through grit, resilience, and a refusal to settle for less.
