Greatness Needs Resistance - Antonio Michael Downing & Jerid P. Woods
Antonio Michael Downing joins Jerid P. Woods for a powerful conversation about ancestry, identity, writing, and claiming your place in the Black literary tradition. Antonio reflects on the influence of his grandmother, overcoming impostor syndrome, removing ego from the creative process, and how doubt—even from haters—can become fuel for purpose, discipline, and greatness.
