Episode 2: Leonard Rivers


Listen Later

Leonard Rivers comes to us from Southern California. Born in 1947 in the town of Galveston Texas, Leonard details the racism he experienced first hand from an early age, attending a segregated school, becoming a track star, and going on to attend UCLA. Leonard also tells very interesting stories on how he was nearly drafted and sent to the Vietnam War, being savant like as a Certified Public Account, and how he met the love of his life, Gloria. I hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as I did speaking with Mr Rivers.
