Taking it to the Max: an Autobiography

Book excerpt: This is an autobiography of the life, times and adventures of Maxie Alphonso Hayles, a community and human rights activist who eventually settled in Birmingham, England, where he has lived and worked for the past fifty-six years after his early Jamaican upbringing. Maxie Hayles has spent most of his adult life fighting for social justice and equality both in Britain and abroad and has achieved a lot in that time. As a devout Christian with a firm belief in humanity, Maxie has never wavered from 'the struggles' in wanting to make the world a better place, as he takes it to the maximum level.
