I think change starts with you. With each individual, it's how you feel about it, whether you choose to make yourself uncomfortable, to be able to help the progress of equality in America.

He included: “I hope that the entire world, Black Americans and those who are Black in other countries, those who receive prejudice or injustice, know that they're not alone. We're steady fighting for this. I'm fighting for the reality. If Dr. King and all of the people who have become motivators for me had a dream, I'm now fighting for the reality. I want to see it. I want it in real time. I want to go as far as I possibly can to help the entire world fix it."
