4 yrs ago, I mentored 4 young men for 2 weeks on Martha's Vineyard & we ended up meeting @BarackObama & @MichelleObama and I facilitated an unforgettable 2.5 hr convo about their experience. S/O to @AbrigalF & Conan Harris for choosing me! #Mentorship #BarackObama #MichelleObama

Y’all my Dad was sentenced to Life W/O Parole nearly 30 years ago. He gave up all hope on ever getting a hearing but I had faith! We’ve called + mailed lawyers 1000000 times and he finally got his hearing today! As hard as it is.. Don’t ever give up hope & faith in our system!
