Who: Main speaker T. Rodgers, PhG in Gangology, Author, Actor and South Central Community Leader.

Performing local artists- Boss Youngin, Semi Auto, Miss Aquarius, and (NJ's) Quest Money.

T. Rodgers is a non-traditional leader who founded Sidewalk University a community based consulting organization. The organization grew into a strategy that empowers disenfranchised communities.

T Rodgers built his Los Angeles Nation one member at a time. Now he wants to undo the damage and stop gang violence the same way, one human at a time. His unique transformation from Nation leader to community advocate is based upon years of experience in the heart of the gang lifestyle.

This is not just another discussion; it is a gathering of young men and women whose lives have been directed by violence. They are united as part of a greater movement to change the course of their future. From T. Rodgers they are gaining the knowledge that they need to take their lives in a new direction. If given the necessary tools they will make positive change.

Why: T. Rodgers has been providing services across the United States for over 30 years. He has been a trailblazer in the art of empowering individuals with the necessary tools to become S.E.L.F. (Survival Education for Life and Family) sufficient, therefore decreasing negative activities in the communities.
