Johnson weaves a powerful memoir that shines a light on the unbreakable bond of brotherhood, the resilience of the human spirit, and the profound love that roots a family. Through the eyes of George, Garrett, Rall, and Rasul, readers are invited into a world where challenges and triumphs are shared, where every hardship is cushioned by the strength of sibling bonds and the unwavering support of their grandmother, Nanny. Set against a backdrop of societal struggles and personal victories, Johnson's narrative celebrates the beauty of Black boyhood, the complexity of emotions, and the pure, unyielding love that holds them together. With vivid storytelling and poignant reflections, Johnson does not just recount memories; he breathes life into them, painting a vivid tableau of laughter, tears, and growth. Through intimate letters to Nanny and a collection of personal photographs, "We Are Not Broken" transcends the genre of memoir, offering a heartfelt tribute to familial love, resilience, and the invisible threads that weave through generations. This book is not just a story of survival but a testament to the joy, strength, and indomitable spirit of four boys and the remarkable woman who raised them. In its essence, it’s a reminder that in the face of adversity, we are not broken, but infinitely strong together.
