Framed & Profiled

Beschreibung

A young ambitious Black Psychiatrist was lured under false pretenses to open a private practice in a small town in central Indiana. Once he arrived, they breached every aspect of their contractual agreement with him. Then he found out why they recruited him: To be the fall guy in a multi-million dollar fraud operation. When he didn't go along with their plans, hospital officials first tried to induce him to discredit himself. When that failed, they tried a setup in the CEO's office. When he out-smarted them again, they put a contract on his life.

Autor

Dr. Van Johnson M.D. is a black native of Chicago, Illinois, who grew up in a religious family. At that time in history, America maintained a racially segregated society until 1964. In 1968, he was allowed to attend a traditionally all-white prep school. It was four years of culture shock, but he was conditioned to survive in white society. He graduated from a white college in three years, completed a Harvard Fellowship, and attended a white medical school and Psychiatry residency. But nothing could prepare him for what he would face after starting a private practice in a predominantly white, small town in central Indiana. It took six years to write this story. Some will question how this could possibly happen in this great democratic country--but it did happen!
