8Outspoken: The Memoir captures the metamorphic journey of a young man growing up in the heart of the inner city of Cleveland. Fatherless, academically challenged, and lacking positive influence, the only way to go was down a path of uncertainty and destruction. Through self actualization and the manifestation of his own words, he changed his life for the better, excelling in school and exceeding all expectations. It is a powerful story of transformation and resilience that provides inspiration to all who read it.
