A Candid Conversation On Activism, Non-Profits, and Faith with Non-Profit Director Alesha Smith
On Episode 9 of the Visionaries Only Podcast, we sit down with Activist, Poet, Athlete, Program Director at PeacePlayers Brooklyn, Alesha Smith.
This was a very candid and honest conversation around non-profit and activism, particularly the areas we’d love to see improvement. We go into what drives people’s inaction and how Alesha inspires change from within the community, most notably, she tells the story of how she helped get a street named after a women who lost her life to gun violence. We also touch on her story of returning to full contact sports after back surgery that could’ve left her paralyzed. This is the story of a woman balancing Sports, Activism and Spirituality while keeping her authentic southern roots at the forefront.
