Dr. Dan and journalist/author Nancy Johnson have an important, must-listen-to conversation about race, President Obama, Black Lives Matter, family, friendship, motherhood, The Kindest Lie, and much more on this new episode.

Her debut novel The Kindest Lie (named one of the most anticipated books of 2021 by the Chicago Tribune,Newsweek, Oprah Magazine, Shondaland, Parade) tackles essential and timely issues including "The Talk" that Black parents have with their children, expectations for success when growing up Black, when do children begin to understand the concept of race, is racism a learned behavior, and what inspired Nancy to write this book (plus what she hopes readers will gain from reading it).
A graduate of Northwestern University and The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Nancy lives in downtown Chicago and manages brand communications for a large health care nonprofit. For more information about Nancy and her novel visit her author website www.nancyjohnson.net .
