Description

In this deeply personal, era-ending episode, I share my connection with the famed Civil Rights figure, Bayard Rustin, some of his accomplishments prior to the March on Washington, and how I came to adopt his name.

I also discuss how I plan to move forward given the state of the world and what it means to me to follow my own star. You may need tissue for this one and you can’t say you weren’t warned.

Give this a listen.
