I’m Possible: A Story of Survival, a Tuba, and the Small Miracle of a Big Dream by Richard Antoine White From the streets of Baltimore to the halls of the New Mexico Philharmonic, a musician shares his remarkable story in I’m Possible, an inspiring memoir of perseverance and possibility. Growing up, Richard Antoine White and his mother didn’t have a key to a room or a house. Sometimes they had shelter, but they never had a place to call home. Still, they always had each other, and from a young age, Richard believed he could look after his mother, even as she struggled with alcoholism and would frequently disappear, sending Richard into loops of visiting familiar spots until he found her again. And he always did–until one night, when he almost dies searching for her in the snow, and is taken in by his adoptive grandparents. Available at Lawrence Public Library
