  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  In Daniel Silva’s “The Rembrandt Affair,” Gabriel Allon, an art restorer and occasional spy, gets pulled into a complex case when his friend and art dealer, Julian Isherwood, asks for help recovering a stolen Rembrandt. The painting, “Portrait of a Young Woman,” hides a secret list connected to a stolen fortune in looted Holocaust assets. Allon’s investigation uncovers a network of powerful individuals, including the seemingly benevolent billionaire Martin Landesmann, whose wealth is tied to the stolen funds. As Allon delves deeper, he encounters danger, betrayal, and a race against time to expose the truth and bring justice to the victims of the past.

  In a polarizing and racially divided America, what do children of color learn about themselves before they even go to school? How do they see themselves and is that image only exacerbated by spending twelve years in a public education system that perpetuates negative stereotypes? Brian Rashad Fuller personally knows that the impact of low expectations can be devastating. He aims to make a difference in this humanizing and very personal portrayal of what it means to be Black in America's schools. 
   
   
   
  As a Black man who has spent his life as a student and an educator, Brian shares his own story of navigating the world, overcoming his family struggles, and eventually entering an educational system that he believes is inherently racist, damaging, and disserving. He exposes the challenges Black students face and offers a firsthand account of the emotional and psychological impact made by teachers, administrators, policies, practices, lessons, and student interactions. Most Americans are looking for answers on how to improve our education system—as illustrated by the critical race theory debate—but have not fully understood the lived Black experience, until now. With powerful insight into a thoroughly American institution, Brian offers present-day solutions, and liberating hope, for a centuries-long issue, as well as a galvanizing and radical step forward.

She offers original perspectives and vulnerable stories from her clients, students, and personal life.
