  Soulman - The Rocky Johnson Story

  Before there was Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, there was his father, “Soulman” Rocky Johnson
  		 
  At 14, Rocky Johnson left Nova Scotia to seek fortune and make professional wrestling his career. An incredibly agile and talented wrestler for a man his size, he soon became a featured main-eventer in every territory he worked — from Los Angeles to New York, and all points in between. He also appeared in wrestling arenas worldwide, including in Canada, Japan, Saudi Arabia, Samoa, and Puerto Rico.
  		 
  In Soulman, Johnson not only explores his career accomplishments, but also reflects upon what his achievements, as a direct descendant of slaves, mean historically and for Black culture. In the South, he shattered racial barriers when he became the first African-American to win the Southern, Georgia, and Florida heavyweight titles, and in 1983, he teamed with Tony Atlas to become the first all-Black WWWF tag team champions. Rocky sees his greatest accomplishment, however, in his son Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, whom he trained to be a wrestler in 1995 and who is now one of the highest-paid actors in Hollywood and one of the most-recognized names in the world.
  		 
  Soulman: The Rocky Johnson Story is an in-depth look at the life of a self-made man who wouldn’t let anything stand in his way on the road to success.

  Disabled as a result of childhood meningitis, Paul Hodgson has written this autobiography in order to challenge the stereotype of the wheelchair-bound victim.
  Far from being a passive spectator, we learn how Paul struggled to care for his mother through several strokes and Alzheimer's disease and of the rift this caused within his family. He also speaks of the Community Care system, his experiences of education and employment, and the loyalty of his friends.
  This is his account of life as a fan of Darlington Football Club which reveals another side to Paul's nature, with its fascinating compendium of mishaps and drink-fueled escapades, which are invariably laced with his own brand of black humour.
  Give Them Wings is a graphic story of one man's fortitude in the face of severe odds, it offers a unique insight into what it means to be disabled in modern society.
  The book ties in with a blockbuster film of his life, Give Them Wings, directed by Sean Cronin and due to be released in summer 2021. The film won the "Best Feature" at The London Independent Film Festival and stars Daniel Watson (as Paul) together with Toyah Wilcox.
