Honored by the 49ers!

Big big thanks to the San Francisco 49ers for honoring me at their home game on Christmas Eve. The recognition was for Inspiring Change for Social Justice. It was surreal to see my face on the Jumbotron and to hear 60,000 people cheering for you.

Everyone knows I love working with the kids. And the Niners won big time. Thanks again and Go Niners!
