Publisher Description
My brother was almost two years older than me. I was born June ’56, while he was born May of ’54. My uncle used to call me "me too" because I always wanted to do everything like my brother, so I ended up with the name "me too". In junior high school and high school, I started to beat him in basketball, and in racing, he was faster in the shorter distance and I was faster in a longer distance. Then I became faster in the shortest distance; that’s when we formed a relay team that had about 10 to 12 national records. We ended up competing against each other more than with our opponents, and I don’t know why.
The biggest achievement as a relay team together was Jesse Owens giving us our medals at Spectrum, even though breaking that national record and breaking national record at Madison Square Garden within the same week, I had lost a lot of scholarships for reasons I still do not know. You better have the Lord in your life because with the decisions and choices you make in life, you are going to need God. I knew that Fortune 500 companies had tuition reimbursement, so when one door closed in life, another door opened in life - just as long as you have the Lord with you. (That’s the only way I can make it. Thank you, Jesus!)
Then I ended up developing life-saving products with two patents for Johnson & Johnson, saving lives. God is good. Thank you, Jesus. Witnessing a Black man having the life choked out of him for 10 minutes by a White policeman is one of the main reasons why I created this book, because I developed products that saved lives and here goes the White man choking the life out of another Black man for no reason.
