My Friends As An Activist I have really grown through the help
and mentoring of many of you. But there is a story on this many of you do not know. And today I am retelling it from my Original Facebook Post from January 18,2015.

It started in 1988 in Ocala Fl as a college Freshman at Central Florida Community College in Ocala Fl. I needed to do a Term Paper for my Contemporary America class taught by Professor Amy Yeary. I asked my dad what I should write on. He said Civil Rights. Now as a young Democrat I supported Civil Rights. But had no idea of the sacrifices of MLK, Rosa Parks, Rep John Lewis, Medger Evers, Harry T. Moore, Jesse Jackson and others made. King, Evers, and Moore with their lives.  I was inspired by them to serve and fight injustice.  I needed Healthcare and said to myself : “If I ever get an opportunity to get all Insured I Will Do It !”
So my friends I fight today for Medicaid Expansion and Civil Rights so All Have Dignity ! Thanks to MLK and his :” I Have A Dream ”  Speech ! For  inspiring me. ! I like Dr Kng am Faith based in my activism. I view it as a call to aid humanity by being A Voice For The Voiceless ! Dr King died for Justice and Dignity ! ………Lets all keep working to KEEP THE DREAM ALIVE Thank You Dr King for the Inspiration you are one of My Heroes image

! Thank You God Bless
