"ELIZABETH LESSER Co-founder, Omega Institute, and author of bestselling books, including Broken Open and Cassandra Speaks ""Pain pushes you, and purpose pulls you,"" writes educator, Morris Ervin, in his beautiful, real, painful and purposeful book. This is not a sugar-coated version of the push-pull journey of a troubled and brilliant Black man finding his way in today's America. Rather it is a window into the everyday challenges of turning anger and rage into power and love. It is the story of one man whose purpose is to teach and heal others, but it's our story too. Anyone who wants to keep his or her heart open and vulnerable, even when facing personal problems and conflict, even in a world of violence and injustice, will be inspired by Ervin's life, service, and transformation."
