Fulfilling the Dream with Wayman Britt

The Gerald R. Ford Presidential Foundation and the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library & Museum welcomed Foundation Trustee Wayman Britt to discuss his book, Fulfilling the Dream: My Pathway to Leadership and Finding Purpose in Serving Others.

Fulfilling the Dream is an honest, eye-opening, and inspiring book about setting aside personal ego and ignoring racial and political bias to benefit others. Wayman Britt’s story is a tale of believing in one’s dreams, realizing them–and then dedicating one’s life to helping others imagine and achieve better lives.
