"Thug Life to Triumphant Life" Part 2 with Author, Reggie Beaty (video)

We continue our interview with "Thug Life to Triumphant Life" author, Reggie Beaty. Reggie focuses on the opportunity he was given to change his path, and reshape his future. Now his focus is on giving the same opportunity to other students in his community and around the world.
Reggie's Bio:
Reggie was a “difficult to reach youth” growing up in his hometown of Atlanta, Georgia. Beaty found out early on the critical role that mentors play in a youth’s life. He was expelled from school at 14, ran with gang-oriented crowds, carried weapons, and was ultimately incarcerated. Beaty found a mentor in Bobby Garrett, director of West End Academy, a non-traditional school in the Communities In Schools of Georgia system. As a result of Garrett’s intervention, Beaty graduated from West End Academy, earned a Bachelor’s Degree from Stillman College, and a Master’s in Aerospace Education from Middle Tennessee State University. Next, Beaty built a stellar 20-year career in the United States Army, rising to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. Along the way, Beaty earned the Leo A. Codd national “Instructor of the Year” for all colleges and universities, presented by President George W Bush, and “Civic Man of the Year” for his work with youth in Oklahoma. For 10 years Beaty served as Chief Operating Officer with Communities In Schools of Georgia, where he helped to build the non-traditional schools Performance Learning Centers and Georgia’s “Graduation Coaches” initiative.

Episode 5: "Activism Through Volunteerism" - Jacinda L. Beason

It is said that "One of the greatest gifts you can give is your time." It is one of the most precious things you can give to another in need. Muhammad Ali believed that “Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on Earth.” Ghandi told us that “The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.” Volunteering gives us the opportunity to try new things, meet new people, learn a skill, or visit new places. But mostly, it is a chance to make this world a better place for us all, one small step at a time. Are you looking to make a difference in the world? Join us this week as Jacinda Beason founder of JLBeason Consulting shares with us the importance of activism through volunteerism, and what steps you can take to change the world. Learn of her connection to then Senator Barrack Obama and how he inspired her to take her love of community and volunteering and turn it into a career of service to others. #SpeakOutThePodcast ----more---- Episode Producers: Annice Lillard Dean Lillard Jewel Howard Sharon Phillip Director of Production Services: Sharon Phillip Assistant Director: Suzanne Phillip Special Thanks: Wholistic Entertainment & Events Cr8-tive Company LLS PoeticJem Productions Our Theatre Company "Speak Out: Arts, Activism & More!" is produced by the Cr8-tive Group
