I am a former EMT. I volunteered in an emergency room. I have been a licensed attorney and active duty Army Officer for nine years. I have represented and helped over 60 sexual assault victims. I have cleared the names of wrongfully convicted criminals. Who would want to hurt me? Well, none of that matters because…I am still a black man who jogs.
