Poetic Statement—I am a thought provoker. I am striving to leave a finger print of legacy on everything that I touch, everywhere that I go. The struggle is hard, but the purpose is greater, and so I will keep striving all the more earnestly to reach the goal. I am often quoted for saying, "My purpose in life is to erase as much ignorance about my people as possible... and so I write."
