The book is so very practical, Taulbert does not leave us with efforts we can't make happen, instead he points out the extreme value in our everyday acts of goodness and that we can build community wherever we are
The author Clifton L. Taulbert believes and demonstrates how through everyday acts of goodness and reasonable effort we can provide the foundation on which we can build community any where we are, in the world. The author reflects on his own life and extracts what he believes is 'truth', that he was raised by a community.
He is a strong believer in the value of communities and encourages the creating, building and sustaining of communities. He is a firm believer in the reality of communities and does not embrace the negative belief that such positive and caring beliefs are not enough to make it happen.
The eight habits of the heart that Taulbert credits as the foundation for building communities include a nurturing attitude, dependability, responsibility, friendship, brotherhood, high expectations, courage, and hope. The book contains inspirational stories and the vision and authors formula for a better and caring world. 100% of the people who read this book liked it.
