Black Resilience with Braeden Anderson
Episode description
Interview with Braeden Anderson, author of Black Resilience.
K. Braeden Anderson first made headlines in 2020 for doing what very few law students have done: He earned his law degree while playing Division I basketball and managed to get the grades necessary to land a job at a top law firm — the “Obama firm,” to be exact. Not only has he written a new book to inspire others, but he’s also started a foundation, coffee shop, and successful family life. He details his secrets to success in his new book.
“BLACK RESILIENCE: The Blueprint for Black Triumph in the Face of Racism,” is a groundbreaking book that provides a powerful strategy for success in spite of bias. While the book addresses a Black reader, it’s for any person facing bias.
Anderson teaches aspiring leaders:
How to be resilient.
Why celebrating Black excellence is key.
The dangers of too much attention on victimhood.
How to win friends using tact.
The reasons why overcoming learned helplessness starts with gratitude.
