Book Launch - "The Narrative of Primus"

Memorial
Written By John Mills

Today, my book "The Narrative of Primus" officially went live on Barnes & Noble, Amazon, and many other booksellers! I feel a bit anxious awaiting responses from those who will read my work.

On Wednesday, April 29th at 6:00pm, Erica and I will hold our official book launch event at Connecticut’s Old State House. It’s a little nerve-racking to place something so personal into the public arena, but as she has for the past 38 years, Erica continues to provide me with comfort and strength.

If you have the time, I would truly appreciate your support at the event. It is a free event—please register HERE.

I am deeply grateful for the many of you who have supported me along this journey, and I hope you’ll consider joining us at the event.

If you’d like to learn more about the book, feel free to watch the short video below.

Thank you and God Bless.

John

John Mills

Originally from San Diego, John Mills is a technologist by trade, but an equity advocate and independent scholar by passion. The descendant of both southern and northern enslaved, John focuses on unearthing little known people and stories of this country’s history in slavery and the transatlantic slave trade. John presents research through the lens and perspective of a descendant, with intent to inspire understanding and empathy, a means to inspire good, God fearing people, now armed with information, to look into whether they may be unwittingly aligning to biases resulting from the reverberating effects of a past time. John is a member of the Connecticut Freedom Trail and a member of the Webb Deane Stevens Museum Council. John is also working with an international team funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) and the UK Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) in an effort to deliver transformational impact on digital methods in cultural institutions...a means to decolonize museums. Finally, John is working with the state of Connecticut, business leaders and scholars in Middletown, CT to honor and memorialize a former enslaved individual by the name of Prince Mortimer.
