I am not an expert, I am still educating myself like everyone, but today, I want to use my platform to amplify marginalized voices. My goal is to spark conversations with my listeners that will lead them to make a difference in their communities.

Like Barack Obama said: “One voice can change a room, and if one voice can change a room, then it can change a city, and if it can change a city, it can change a state, and if it change a state, it can change a nation, and if it can change a nation, it can change the world. Your voice can change the world.” So let’s use our voices and discuss together.
