I Am Scared; VERY SCARED! by John Ayoola AkinyemiMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
A Raw Testament of Democratic Anxiety and Renewed Hope...
Dr. John Akinyemi opens up his heart in I Am Scared, VERY SCARED! This is more than just a book; it's a gut-wrenching cry from the heart, a very personal look at a world that seems to be getting more and more unmoored. Akinyemi weaves together memory, social reflection, and spiritual searching with the voice of someone who has seen and felt too much to stay quiet. He doesn't write as a distant observer; he writes as a man who is afraid—of his own fear and ours—and who says that silence is not an option.
The writing is sometimes poetic, sometimes rambling, and always honest. A strong belief in the healing power of empathy, community, and brave leadership is what holds it all together. It's not so much about politics as it is about people—what we've lost, what we could lose, and what we need to get back. This book is really just a reminder that caring is brave and speaking up is a sign of hope.
