2018 Black Heritage Keynote Address
from the fire officer trust podcast Hosted by Chief John Alston
Had the tremendous opportunity to spend an evening, back in February of this year, sharing some ideas on Black Heritage. I want to thank Leonard Webb of Ethnic Online for asking me to participate in the program. There was spoken word, an African American Heritage Showroom, a funky band and then me... This type of event and venue always presents new challenges to public speaking, as you must share with a crowd that came to eat, dance, have a good time and talk about of rich heritage. It becomes a greater challenge when you have to speak in between a band break at 9:40 p.m.. Having my Dad, John, Sr., in the audience made it so much better and I hope the ad-hoc audio recording plays well enough for you to get the message of what I hoped to accomplish.
