About this ebook
Inspiring lessons about loss and healing, wisdom and fulfillment, perseverance and the wellsprings of joy–from a nationally acclaimed author and commentator.
In Keeping the Faith, Tavis Smiley, host of NPR’s The Tavis Smiley Show, weaves stories of over one hundred African Americans into a rich tapestry of intimate testimonies about life, love, and inner strength. In Smiley’s affirming collection, black Americans from all walks of life join with well known figures such as Iyanla Vanzant, Cornel West, and Danny Glover to offer insights about the moments that challenged them to learn, the teachers who inspired them to grow, and the sources of hope and courage they draw on in their daily lives.
