In this episode 236, we visit with Dr. Augustus White III, co-author of “Overcoming: Lessons in Triumphing over Adversity and the Power of Our Common Humanity,” a collection of real-life profiles of men and women united by the theme of overcoming adversity.

After the collective trauma America experienced during the coronavirus pandemic, Dr. White, whose been called “the Jackie Robinson of orthopedics,” was motivated to introduce us to everyday individuals whose grit, determination, and resilience serve as inspiration to make it to the other side of this crisis.

Arne Duncan, former Secretary of Education under President Barack Obama, had this to say about the book, “In Overcoming, Dr. Gus White has fashioned a timely and terrific treatment of the human condition and instructive roadmap for negotiating one of the most perilous periods in American history. A prescription of hope for an ailing nation beset by racial and ethnic disharmony and a pandemic that has struck us at our most vulnerable core. An inspiring journey certain to lift spirits and help us all to overcome.”
