“I’m thankful, I’m honored that so many people would take time out of their busy lives to say they appreciate the work we do. Everyone who speaks truth is a winner. We can never forget why we serve, why we push, why we work long hours. Not for awards or recognition, but for the communities we care for and love. Never forget about your ’why’… never forget about the people you serve, and you will never lose your way. My production team, Chris Smith, Alex J., and Jorden M. work tirelessly to ensure we are bringing the facts and transforming adverse narratives. I am thankful for them and the support that Rick Caffey, Joyce Littel, Cenk Uygur, Judith Benezra, Karen Hunter, Ms. Brenda, the TYT Network, Urban View, and Audacy provide daily. And to my mentor, Munson Steed, Founder of the multimedia brand Rolling Out… thank you for the guidance and belief in me all these years.”
