If We Are Brave arrives at the perfect time. With remarkable depth and insight, this book doesn't merely analyze; it explores paths toward moving forward. Johnson challenges our perspectives on not just race, but also community, religion, politics, and more. This is a work that compels us to look both backward into the past and forward into the future.

As the country stands on the verge of a historic election, If We Are Brave serves as a much-needed homage to the power of connection and collective efforts. I can easily see this book becoming a staple in academic curriculums and highly recommended for broader discussions on unity and progress.

Dr. Johnson is a brilliant and insightful writer. In this offering we get thoughtful reflections neatly wrapped in his punchy and creative storytelling. This work is both timely and timeless. I'll be recommending it again and again.
