Pulse of Perseverance: Three Black Doctors on Their Journey to Success

By Dr. Pierre Johnson, Dr. Maxime Madhere, and Dr. Joseph Semien Jr.

Pulse of Perseverance is the honest, deeply personal tale of three young men's refusal to succumb to failure and how, together, they overcame daunting odds to take their place among the just 5% percent of U.S. doctors who are black.  As passionate as it is relatable, the authors provide an unflinching look at the barriers black Americans face as they try to move out of the place society has designated for them.

At its core, Pulse of Perseverance is an inspirational story of what can be accomplished with dedication, the support of people with similar goals, and the investment from institutions dedicated to success.  This book is the North Star for every child who sees something greater for themselves than the world would have them believe.
