Reading. Freedom, Strengthening education in inner city areas, Developing ploys to combat self-destructive ignorance. Being creative, Watching sports, Reading, Feeding my passions through music and books. Having intelligent substantive conversations. Reading. Putting a moratorium on BET!!!!, Contributing to the cause of uplifting people of color. Reviving from my compulsory education. Film. Reading (see a pattern?)
