Taulbert is renowned for his poignant memoirs about growing up in the segregated South and for his lectures and programs in schools, businesses, and communities throughout the world. In\u003cbr\u003e\nEight Habits of the Heart, this inspiring handbook, filled with moving stories and memorable lessons, he lays out eight basic principles he learned from his elders: a nurturing attitude, dependability, responsibility, friendship, brotherhood, high expectations, courage, and hope.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nWith exercises for reflection and practice, Taulbert shows how the Eight Habits of the Heart can be utilized today to help strengthen relationships, families, and communities everywhere. Here is a refreshing and meaningful guide to the spiritual core we, as a society, always seem to be seeking.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAmazon.com Review\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nNationally acclaimed speaker and memoir writer Clifton Taulbert presents eight habits that build the essence of social stability. His habits, which are broken down into brief chapters--\"A Nurturing Attitude,\" \"Dependability,\" \"Responsibility,\" \"Friendship,\" \"Brotherhood,\" \"High Expectations,\" \"Courage,\" and \"Hope\"--may not be stunningly original, yet they reflect a kind of plainspoken \"front-porch wisdom\" rooted in Taulbert's Southern upbringing. His elders ignored the boundaries of legal segregation and embarked on a campaign to offer a community that embraced the dreams and successes of each child and family. This is an excellent book for young-adult readers who will appreciate the rich, memoir-style storytelling and the simple but genuine lessons of how to be a good person in order to build a more spiritually evolved world.\u003cbr\u003e\n--Gail Hudson\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nReview\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\"Anyone sincere in wanting to build better community needs to read... no, digest this book.\"—\u003cbr\u003e\nLouisville Courier-Journal\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\"Few guides have the ring of truth that Taulbert achieves.\"—\u003cbr\u003e\nLibrary Journal\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAbout the Author\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nClifton Taulbert is the author of three memoirs:\u003cbr\u003e\nOnce Upon A Time When We Were Colored, the basis for the critically acclaimed feature film by the same name;\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Last Train North, Watching Our Crops Come In, and most recently,\u003cbr\u003e\nLittle Cliff and the Porch People.
