In 2001, shortly before the terrorist attacks on 9/11, Ty Bledsoe was elected the first black Student Body President at the University of California, Davis in over 50 years and then shockingly disqualified. What ensued after his election was a hostile battle against the societal woes that plague our great nation today. As you read The Mountaintop, you will be stunned by the blatant bigotry and bias in the 21st Century as blemishes to the American tapestry regarding racial injustice, economic disparities, and religious intolerance are revealed. Though this story could be overshadowed by such complex societal woes, Mr. Bledsoe presents a long-awaited future, where diversity and inclusion are America's destiny, economic equity among its citizenry is achieved, and communities thrive peacefully. The power of faith, hope, and unity reign in The Mountaintop. A gripping memoir, The Mountaintop describes the life of Ty Bledsoe, who emerged from Oakland, CA, raised by a single mother amidst failing public schools to become a third-generation ordained minister, public elected official, non-profit innovator, and an accomplished corporate leader.
