Just came to my school, a title 1 school in Phoenix. He spoke truths that these kids could hear. Some of it was graphic but kids are tough to that stuff these days. I think every kid walked out of the presentation with a renewed sense of self-worth.
Gave a speech recently at my school. Started out ok, but then his speech got too graphic for kids. Seems to have forgotten his target audience and was reliving his past in a group setting. According to one student - he gave a lot of ideas of how to hurt other people.
