Well I am from Annapolis Maryland. I went to High school in Baltimore, but I grew up in Annapolis. It was a cute town. We lived on a waterfront community. It was good, even though I don't really fit the preppy boater kind of style. ↗

Dream nonsense: Character: Hey, how are you? Me: I’m tired. I mean, this is a dream, so I must be, right? ↗

Simply because one is Black or Latino or lesbian or gay or whatever does not guarantee the person’s fidelity to a body of politics that empowers the particular constituency that they supposedly represent. The number of black elected officials has risen from 100 in 1964 to more than 9000 today. The number of African Americans who were in congress 30 years ago was about five; today it is over 40, an 800 percent increase. But have Blacks experienced an 800 percent increase in real power? It hasn’t happened. So, I think the emphasis of this liberal notion of social change by working solely within the established electoral system is just fatally flawed. ↗

Alone everything changes. Some might call it distorted reality but it's exactly the place I need to be. ↗

I’m encouraging young people to become social business entrepreneurs and contribute to the world, rather than just making money. Making money is no fun. Contributing to and changing the world is a lot more fun. ↗

I really do try hard to be a good teammate. I can't run very fast, but I try to always run hard. I may strike out a lot, but I try to walk to set up the guys who are hitting after me. ↗

It’s amazing how things could change so quickly, in the blink of an eye. Maybe more miracles awaited on the horizon. ↗

I think, as I've gotten older I have realized what a huge privilege it is to even be in this business. I, more than ever, love what I do. ↗
