A DEEPLY PERSONAL BATTLE AGAINST RACISM - RIPPLE OF HOPE: FROM THE BOILING FROG’S PERSPECTIVE by Darrell Nathaniel Bridgers
Kai Jones is a Black male attorney living in New York City. He is in an interracial relationship, married to an Italian woman that he met in law school. They thought they were living the American dream, living on the Upper West Side of Manhattan and raising two young daughters. But when they come under attack by racist neighbors in their building (the "Hagmans"), Kai must use his legal training to defend his family and their home against the Hagmans and the Co-Op Board they control. If he fails, he not only risks losing his home but his family as well.
Darrell Nathaniel Bridgers, a trailblazing African American attorney, celebrated screenwriter, and visionary creative force, has unveiled his first full-length novel, Ripple of Hope: From the Boiling Frog’s Perspective. This debut work is a powerful fictionalization of Bridgers’ profound and deeply personal battle against racism in New York City. Blending his experience as a legal professional with his storytelling prowess, Bridgers crafts a narrative that is as moving as it is transformative.
