Trapped In The Bubble

In this powerful continuation, John Robinson deepens the legacy of his autobiography Chicken Scratch, which expands the emotional and spiritual landscape of his personal journey. Trapped in the Bubble is an inspiring faith-based story that pulses with strength and grace. Through raw honesty and grit, Robinson recounts the life of Alex "Bud" Wright and his struggles with living in the South. It is an empowering true story of finding purpose. It invites readers into a sacred dialogue about healing, justice, and the quiet triumphs of everyday life. This book is not just a memoir-it's a call to rise, and one man's journey through life.

Fourteen years ago, they told me my time was runnin' out-said that cancer would take me. But here I am, still standin', still fightin', and still thankin' the good Lord for every breath He gives me. My name's John Robinson, and this here is the start of a story you haven't heard told like this before.

Now, this ain't just about me. It's about life-about how we get knocked down, find our feet, and keep on movin' forward. It's about a man named Bud Wright, though he was better known to folks as Alex Wright. He was a young Black man, born and raised in the South. Life didn't deal him much, and with no more than a first-grade education-he didn't let that stop him. He fought hard for justice, for equality, and for what was right, even when the world tried to tell him he didn't matter.

I shared a piece of Bud Wright's story in my book Chicken Scratch, but this time, I'm diggin' deeper, tellin' the part that was left unsaid. It's a story that'll touch your soul, make you think hard, and maybe even change the way you see the world. It's about standin' strong when the weight of life tries to bury you and holdin' tight to your faith when the path ahead feels too long to walk.

It's a story that allows you to step into a time when life was rough, but hearts were strong, and hope was unshakable. This ain't just B.W.'s story-it's all our stories, fightin' the tides, searchin' for somethin' that's real and everlasting. I'm John Robinson, and this is an addition to a life of chickens scratching.
