These stones are all on the top of small hills, connected to the mountains. How can they be moved all the way? "One day, my father went to the city to buy horses, and my mother took us to work on the farm. She said, "Let us move these obstructing stones away, okay?" "So we started to dig out the stones.

He thought that if he could invite President Roosevelt's wife Eleanor to write such an article, the result would be very popular, both in terms of the magazine's circulation and black issues. So he wrote a very sincere letter to the president's wife. Mrs. Roosevelt wrote back that she was too busy to write. Undeterred, Johnson wrote her another letter, only to be rebuffed. From now on, Johnson would write a letter to the president's wife on time every half month, and his words would become more sincere.

Later, Mrs. Roosevelt came to Chicago where Johnson was located on official business and would stay in the city for two days. After Johnson got the news, he immediately sent her a telegram asking her to take some time to write an article for "Negro Digest" while in Chicago. Perhaps it was his sincerity that moved Mrs. Roosevelt. This time she did not refuse. She wrote her thoughts into an article and sent it to "Negro Digest". When the news broke, the whole country knew about it. Within a month, sales of Black Digest surged from 20,000 to 150,000 copies.
