He has also has authored four cover stories for Newsweek magazine, including a seminal piece entitled The Fight for Black Men which historian Taylor Branch called “stunning.”

He currently lives in Washington, D.C. with his wife, Michelle.
 

 
DRF began the Speaker Series in 2009 by bringing innovative thinkers to the Dan River Region as part of the Foundation’s work to transform the regional economy and create a prosperous and healthy culture benefiting all of the region’s citizens.  A result of the Speaker Series has been people developing more confidence in their community.  Attendees take the speakers’ messages home with them and share it with friends, family, and co-workers.  These messages of positive change are contagious and spread quickly throughout the community.
