"Holy Cross, Black Power, and the Sixties could have been an unholy mix. A bold Jesuit priest made it a holy one. The story of Father John Brooks, Clarence Thomas, Ted Wells, and the others rings with power, pride, and human feeling. "Fraternity" and the saga it retells adds honor to my college."--Chris Matthews, anchor, MSNBC's "Hardball with Chris Matthews"
"Diane Brady's book brilliantly shows how the attention and concern of one man changed not only the course of these individual lives but the course of history. This book is a template of how we should all think about both our societal responsibility and the gift of mentorship."--Wes Moore, author of "The Other Wes Moore"
"An incredibly inspiring book . . . Diane Brady has captured the story not just of a group of amazing black men and their mentor but of an era. But most of all, "Fraternity" is about the power of hope, the power of presence in the lives of others, the power of mentorship, role modeling, and actionable belief. And this is why I see this book as the best modern-day example of the continued power of Dr. King's Dream."--John Hope Bryant, founder and CEO of Operation HOPE and author of "Love Leadership: The New Way to Lead in a Fear-Based World"
"Rife with questions about education that are as vital today as they were in the sixties, "Fraternity" is a reminder that success in life is often about being given the chance to succeed, and that great educators have the power to shape the course of history. This is an important story that will bring endless inspiration."--Sampson Davis, author of "The Pact: Three Young Men Make a Promise and Fulfill a Dream"
