  EXCELLENT talk. One of the best I've seen in a long time. Thank you Shaka for sharing your story. I work with at-risk youth in Flint, Michigan (not too far or too different from Detroit!) and many of the young people we see have similar stories as yours. I'm going to share the video of your talk, as well as the accompanying transcript of your conversation with Daniel Reisel with all of our staff, as well as the youth that enter our shelter. Thank you again for sharing your journey with us. It's a story that our youth need to hear."
