(((My Fellow Americans))) #110: King Randall

<p>King Randall is a 21 year old Marine vet who saw a problem in his community in Georgia and decided to fix it.</p> <p>So he started The "X" for Boys, a program dedicated to helping at-risk Black boys in his community by teaching them vocational skills and getting them out of unsafe environments and into his organization's custody.</p> <p>Many of these kids were in abusive homes, homeless shelters, or juvenile detention.</p> <p>The X's philosophy of "do for self" instills in these boys a sense of independence and belonging, and teaches them the skills to thrive and prosper.</p> <p>King is reclaiming children from a system that wants them desperate and subjugated.</p> <p>And guess who's trying to stop The X from helping even more kids?</p> <p>If you guessed the government, you'd be correct.</p> <p>Join us as we talk about the challenges King is facing them, and how he's overcoming them.</p> --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/muddiedwaters/message Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/muddiedwaters/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/muddiedwaters/support</a>
