PART ONE
The Gap Has a Name
How a healthcare executive from Indianapolis built a quiet global movement and wrote a book about why no one sees themselves clearly until someone helps them look

TThere is a photograph tucked inside a slender devotional published last year by an independent press in Indianapolis. It shows a man in a white Alabama A&M homecoming T-shirt standing in the sunshine between two older people, his arms around both of them. He is grinning. They are grinning. The trees behind them are full and green. Nobody in the frame looks like they are trying to prove anything.
