In the inaugural episode of Defying Gravity with Terrence Wolfgang Baldwin, we sit down with a trailblazer who knows what it means to push past limits—Mayor Steven L. Reed, the first Black mayor of Montgomery, Alabama.

We discuss his time at Morehouse College, his experiences pledging Omega Psi Phi, and what it truly means to defy gravity when faced with pressure, expectations, and the challenges of public service.
Mayor Reed also gives us an inside look at Montgomery’s growth, challenges, and future plans, reflecting on his State of the City address and how he stays grounded in the face of adversity.
