Fighting for social justice is not about leaving the mainstream. It is about being right in the middle of it.

I wanted to tell stories about people who didn't have the chance to tell their own.

I am certainly vulnerable when I sit down with parents who have lost their children to gun violence. The emotion that they experience is so foreign to me that I find it very hard to say the right things.

Do ballet and play football. Sing and dance. Laugh and cry.

Fighting for social justice is not about leaving the mainstream. It is about being right in the middle of it.

I have been so damn lucky to be able to do what I love my entire life. I never take that for granted.

I will go to my grave wishing that I did more. Wishing that I didn't sleep as much. Wishing that I didn't waste so much time. Wishing that I fought harder.
