Still Living by Marcel Anderson is a powerful and courageous memoir that shares the journey of a male sexual assault survivor who found healing through faith, music, and purpose. As a renowned vocalist and advocate, Marcel opens up about his personal pain to break the silence surrounding male trauma and inspire other men to rise above shame, reclaim their voice, and live with strength and hope.
This book is a testament to survival, resilience, and the unbreakable spirit of a man who chose to keep living—and to help others do the same.
