Darkness Fades and the Light Begins to Grow, marking the birth of the NU DAWN

About Me

Waz up folk? It's your boi, Ogbonna Adisa, aka OG, Bone, 3rd Greatest, Fish and Chips Freddy, aka Tito Jackson, and Da Prodigal 1. I'm doing good and God is openning doors like you wouldn't believe. I'm currently working as a cell phone salesman and going back to school to finish my degree in Marketing and get my finanical planner and high school teaching certificates. In March I completed my first triathlon. I'm a father of an eight year old princess. I'm also working on developing a nonprofit organization designed to be a new social service paradigm focused on education, health, economic empowerment, and leadership development.

My Interests

Working out, reading mind expanding books. Debating almost any subject. Socializing and hanging out with my folks. Check out friendoffriends.org

I'd like to meet:

I look forward to meeting Jesus. I'd like to have a round robin discussion with Harriett Tubman, Malcom X, WEB Dubois, Cornel West, Tupac, KRS-1, Mandela, MLK Jr., Survivors from Rosewood/Black Wallstreet and 1898 Wilmington Riots, Black Ice, Jamil Baines, Roger Harris, Mandela, Aisha Kelly, Ghandi, Mrs. Simpson (high school teacher), Tavis Smiley, Talib Kweli. I would want to sit or better yet stand among such leaders and listen to how each of them found ways to leave their footprints in the sand of purposeful living. But since most are already gone, I'll read their books and break bread with the ones who are still here so I may have a chance to be whispered in the same circles as these carriers of the tourch.

Music:

Anything with creativity, and a passionate message.

Television:

Trying to quit but its more addictive than PCP and Crack.

Books:

If you don't have it, go get it NOW!! The Covenant with Black America is a must read and a must act.I'm currently reading Becoming Dad. So far it is a great read.

Heroes:

My Mother, My Brothers, My Daughter's Mother, Harriett Tubman, and many more that cried alone in the dark nights so that those that depended on them the most would never see them with their heads down. I love you much!!! Keep pushing forward a Nu Dawn is Coming.
