Live to Make a Difference tells the powerful true story of Rev. Lloyd E. Dees, an American A.M.E. pastor whose years in Bermuda ignited lasting change, and whose ministry and advocacy continued across the United States. Written from the perspective of a mentee shaped by his guidance, Dr. Shangri-La Durham-Thompson traces how Rev. Dees became a fearless voice for justice, self-identity, and servant leadership in every community he served.

In Bermuda during the late 1960s and early 1970s, Rev. Dees confronted inequality head-on, including the high cost of living, consumer exploitation, and the everyday pressures that eroded dignity. Alongside fellow pastor Rev. John Brandon, he helped mobilize community action that contributed to the establishment of Bermuda's Consumer Affairs Bureau, a public legacy that endured beyond their time on the island.

This book also follows Rev. Dees beyond Bermuda, capturing the breadth of his leadership and the conviction behind it. And it does not ask you to take the story on faith alone. The second half of the book preserves an anthology of primary materials in full, including speeches, letters, magazine pieces, and historical articles, so readers can see the record for themselves.

Inside you'll find:

  • A vivid portrait of a servant leader whose faith expressed itself through public courage and community service
  • Key moments from Bermuda's social landscape, and how Rev. Dees responded with action
  • The story behind his activism with Rev. John Brandon and the push for consumer protection
  • Context on identity, education, and Black consciousness, including the role of Rev. Dees' writing and public advocacy
  • A substantial archive section: speeches, letters, and reference documents reproduced to preserve history

Perfect for readers who value:

  • Biography and memoir rooted in faith and public service
  • Civil rights and social justice history in Bermuda and the wider African diaspora
  • Leadership books centered on character, ethics, and service
  • Church history and the lived work of ministry beyond the pulpit
