So much more than Atlanta’s first Black first lady, Bunnie Jackson Ransom keeps it real while discussing her contributions to American society. From her humble beginnings in Louisburg, North Carolina; to her days as a Delta on the campus of North Carolina College (now North Carolina Central University); and on to her days as Atlanta’s first lady and pioneer in public relations, Jackson Ransom’s details a life well-lived—a nuanced and interesting autobiography that expounds upon the pride and pitfalls of this Black woman pursuing the American dream.
Deciding on the name, “Memoirs of a Life Well Lived,” for this book was harder than writing the story. My family, friends and I finally settled on this title “Memoirs of a Life Well Lived,” because I am most grateful for the amazing, and wonderful life which I was blessed to live. It was a “bucket list” of great experiences – traveling around the world, meeting people in high and low places, making friends, and trying not to make enemies, I had a ball. I lived my life with gusto. I tried to be a good wife and mother; but I am afraid that I was a bit selfish from time to time. I pray that my children will forgive me for not being around to do some of the motherly things some time; but I always tried to make up for my absences. Thank God for my wonderful and dedicated mother, Elizabeth, who eventually came to live in our home in Atlanta after my father passed on to his rewards in glory. I remain just a Black woman from SWATS – South West Atlanta Too Strong, with lots of memories and stories to brag about.
