8:28Now PlayingWith so many important but heavy topics in the news these days, “Making the Case” host Yodit Tewolde takes a moment to spotlight a Black man doing his part to uplift others in his community.
DJ Johnson grew up in New Orleans. He went off to college and eventually dove head-first into a demanding career, but a decision to put family first changed everything. Johnson went back home to help, but also found a new calling, to open up a coffee shop and bookstore called Baldwin and Company. His inspiration and goal of giving back to his community that helped shape him are why he’s an example of someone who’s truly making a difference. Johnson joins Tewolde to share his story and unexpected, yet fulfilling journey.
All this and more on “Making the Case.”
