My guest this week is Nelson Ossé, quite possibly among the most active and engaged community leaders I had the privilege of working with. His dedication to youth empowerment through sport is exemplary and his involvement in his community has led him not only to the very top of his organization, but also at a leadership position through which he administers the most important cultural and community center in Park-Extension, the William-Hingston Complex. On this episode, we discuss his journey and also dive into the current turmoil around racial profiling and systemic racism that exist in our country as well as the importance of the Black Lives Matter movement and its impact in the advancement and betterment of our society. I hope you enjoy this conversation!
