Tell The Damn Story Ep 255: How Long Do You Chase A Dream? w Jamar Nicholas

A question that can only be answered in West Philadelphia Story. This week Alex and Chris speak with award-winning Philadelphia-based artist Jamar Nicholas. Jamar is the triple threat creator/writer/illustrator of LEON THE EXTRAORDINARY, (published by Scholastic Press). He's also an educator who dedicated his career to helping young people realize the power of the visual narrative. In an often gripping interview, we all dive deep into hard, urban truths, and the stubbornness of the creative spirit, in hopes of inspiring others to keep going, even when it gets rough, and when everyone else is telling you no you can't.
