Chapter Summaries & Analyses

Chapter 19 Summary: “Be. Not. Afraid.”

The final five chapters of Everybody, Always consist of stories about Goff’s work for child justice in Uganda. Chapter 19 commences with Goff’s description of talking his way into a meeting with the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Uganda. He writes that he had no agenda going into the meeting but did manage to open the door for his benevolent organization (177-79). He ends the meeting by physically embracing the justice, a breach of protocol, and giving him the key to his San Diego home.

Goff moves to a discussion of being an adjunct professor at Pepperdine University. He holds his office hours at Disneyland. He states that the reason for this is “location drives content” (181); the place a meeting is held can determine the success or failure of the meeting. He reports that the Ugandan Chief Justice traveled to California, where Goff took him to Disneyland and to his home to demonstrate the door key he gave him really worked (182-83). During the visit, the two men determined they would work to eliminate the stranglehold of witch doctors on the Ugandan populace (183-84).
