Experiential narrative

Case story told from 1953: a Black man in Los Angeles believed the pigment of his skin barred him from every opportunity. Neville told him, with Abdullah's example, that the restriction lay only in his own acceptance of it. It took him three years to drop the fixed idea; then in one year he netted a quarter of a million dollars, having started with fifty-four dollars that went on Neville's meetings. Told with the family's use of the law (the boys thanking God that their sister is perfect tomorrow, the son's 'live' watch, the Cadillac treated loosely, the staff who may bring him only good news) and the prejudiced buyer who ended by buying $37,000 of property. Unnamed in 2027.
