Get Up Nation®! My name is Ben Biddick. I’m the Creator & Host of the Get Up Nation® Show and Co-Author of Get Up: The Art of Perseverance with former Major League Baseball player Adam Greenberg. Recently I had the honor and privilege of speaking with Dartanyon Crockett. Dartanyon is a competitive Judo athlete for the United States. He is also legally blind. He won the bronze medal in the men's 90 kg division at both the 2012 Summer Paralympics in London in London and the 2016 Summer Paralympics in Rio. Born in Cleveland's inner city, Dartanyon has lived a profound journey of resilience and currently inspires others by speaking, educating, and striving to create a better world for us all. I’m honored he joined me to share his journey with Get Up Nation®!
