I was tired of listening to people around me and in the media talking about things related to race, economics, and politics that were based on disconnected sound bites, or a deep-seated and usually unfounded and out-of-date ideology handed down to them by their paycheck or their knee-jerk oppositional defiance towards their parents or mainstream views.
My journey will share a very personal window into the multifaceted life I have lived and the experiences, successes, and failures that shaped my thinking. My personal story will share real-life anecdotes to our most controversial and dividing issues like race and socioeconomic ideology. I will include humor as well as personally tragic experiences and discovery with the intent to connect people to the similarities our country is going through and will invariably go through again; to laugh at some of the little differences, and seethe at some of the outrageously egregious ones.
