"" - Mo’Nique, award winning actress, comedian, executive producer, and best-selling author."" - Mo'Nique, Academy Award Winning Actress ""Ernest Crim’s story is both urgent and indispensable. Urgent because America stands at a crossroads, torn between cultural enlightenment and deepening division. Indispensable because, as humans, our fates are intertwined. Yet, many cling to the illusion of meritocracy, believing success is solely a product of individual effort and initiative. This belief ignores the systemic forces that shape opportunity and erases the experiences of people like Mr. Crim, those who have endured relentless assaults on their dignity, mind, and spirit for no reason other than being born with melanin-rich skin and daring to stand in their truth. To overlook his story is to ignore a fundamental reality of our society--one that, if left unaddressed, threatens not just some, but all of us."" - Joy DeGruy, Author of Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome
