Who is to blame when America votes in its first African-American president and the Black community falls further in despair than it has been since the 1970s? How to Lead When No One Follows is a rebuke of a failed system of political leadership and an admonishment to the Black community to demand more of its leaders, and more importantly, itself.Jerry L. Maynard, II has fought for the Black community as a lawyer, politician, and pastor, and has seen the good and the bad of it all. This book is a manifesto invoked by his passion for equality and empowerment.
