Today, You Mean It Or You Don’t: James Baldwin’s Radical Challenge is released wherever books are sold. An exceptional guidebook for those interested in learning how to live their values (as Baldwin challenged us to do), this book will prove helpful to all who might feel troubled by our world but aren’t sure what to do. I’ve been honored to speak in Adam’s class at Duke University (Ethics in an Unjust World) for the last ten years, and I was so impressed by the work he did with Jamie to create this book. The review I posted on Amazon is below, and I hope you’ll consider checking out the book. For more information, you can check out https://prayingwithjamesbaldwin.com/.

Amazon Review:
For ten years, I have watched students in Dr. Hollowell's class grapple with what it means to live ethically in an unjust world. Through deep engagement with Baldwin's writing, Adam and his co-author, Jamie McGhee offer an analysis of literature paired with a template for action. Having been asked by many how they can contribute to the betterment of our troubled world, there is now a tool to which I can direct passionate people that lack a plan (and, sometimes, the knowledge) to get involved. The actions outlined in the book are helpful to social justice novices and career activists alike. Baldwin has challenged generations of readers to think differently. But ultimately, to mean it, we have to act differently. You Mean It Or You Don't will undoubtedly assist you on that journey.
