She is a graduate of Tennessee State University where she became a member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority. She began her professional career as a registered nurse at a teaching hospital dedicated to serving the vulnerable and underserved population. She continued her studies and earned a Master's degree in Health Law at Champlain College. She is a retired military officer and health care leader for a Fortune 100 company. After retiring, she began researching the reasons for poverty in the United States. Her goal is to help empower others to escape the debilitating clutches of poverty.

    Professor. Pundit. Public nuisance. In his columns, books and on social media, Jonathan Jansen is prolific, and he likes to speak his mind about schools and universities, race, politics and our complex South African society. 
      
    He has brought incisive analysis, compassion and a sense of humour to some of the most controversial issues in our country for many years. And now, in this memoir, Jansen goes back to his early years: growing up in a loving, fiercely evangelical family on the Cape Flats, being put on the road to purpose by an inspiring school teacher and becoming the first of his generation to go to university. Journey with Jansen as he finds his passion for teaching high school and becomes a leading academic and thinker amid great transformation in post-apartheid South Africa. 
      
    His gift for story-telling and his interactions with people from different walks of life offer moving insights into the intricacies of South African society, insights that are filled with wisdom and leadership lessons. Jansen’s patchwork of memories tells a bigger story than that of his own life. It’s a tale of learning the value of ‘breaking bread’ with others, of finding mutual recognition in our different fears and faiths, our fumbles and fortitude, our hurts and our hopes.

    What if the better man is the one who knows he’s doing wrong—and does it anyway? 
    In Hippias Minor, Plato stages one of his most paradoxical and unsettling dialogues. Socrates questions whether a person who lies intentionally is actually better than someone who lies out of ignorance. The result is a sharp philosophical exchange that challenges our most basic ideas of morality and virtue. 
    This modern translation keeps Plato’s wit and depth intact while making the argument accessible and compelling for today’s listener. 
    What you'll discover inside: 
    •	A Bold Ethical Challenge – Socrates questions whether intentional wrongdoing shows greater intellect 
    •	Plato’s Paradox on Virtue – Explore the tension between knowledge and morality 
    •	A Lively Clash Between Sophist and Philosopher – Homer, Achilles, and deception take center stage 
    •	A Contemporary Translation for Clear Insight – Ideal for readers exploring deep ethical questions 
    Can a knowing liar be morally superior to an honest fool? Discover the argument that still unsettles philosophers today.
