I was surprised that so many students showed up to hear me speak at 9pm at the University of Indianapolis. Such an amazing night with students that care about each other. #ConnectMoreTour #RestoreCivility #EmbraceDiversity (at University of Indianapolis)

I usually speak at college campuses and businesses during my #ConnectMoreTour, but this impromptu stop at an inner-city elementary school really warmed my heart. They are fully aware of what's going on in the world and plan to make things better. (at Pennsylvania)

@officer_frunzi is my brother. From the front lines of a riot in Charlotte, to serving the homeless together in Detroit... friendships are formed in the most unlikely places.

Today we'll be connecting with youth at the Detroit Police Department. Peace Activists + Police Officers #ProjectHuman (at Detroit City Police Department)

Lives were changed in Detroit today as police officers and peace activists teamed up to serve people in need. It's an honor to work along such humble and inspiring community servants. This is just the beginning.
