going to jail for a just cause isn't such a bad thing, just don't eat the bologna. You think I would learn the second time? Oh, it's better to take friends with you than meet new ones inside...
My Philosophy
we aren't here to take, we are here to give. When you give, you end up getting more back than you could have imagined.
What Gives Me Hope
children, they are our future. They are our here and now.
If I were Mayor, I'd make the world a better place by
tax the rich. end the war. ban weapons. fully fund our schools. ban death penalty. Institute non-military service plan. affordable housing for all. legalize same sex marriage.
What/who changed my life and why
probably a man named Mitch Mitchell who was a member of the Black Panther Party. We worked together in 1968 and it was the beginning of my activism and seeker of social change.
