“We were homeless, but not hopeless.” 

Dantiel Daniels, former Colorado State men’s basketball player and professional player in Finland, Uruguay, and China is now an inspirational athletic coach.  He takes time to share with me about his story growing up and the continued motivation to take opportunities that were foreign to him growing up in his environments. He shares his mother’s encouragement and support and his current drive with his new platform, TielTalk, a program dedicated to highlight and have an open conversation about current events surrounding African American culture.  Bootstrapping and funding on his own, Tiel is also forming Opportunity Ahead, a non-profit organization providing opportunities while highlighting and supporting disadvantaged youth, teens, and adults through fundraising, wellness programs, and partnerships. 

Tiel is currently writing a book titled “Man on a Mission” which is a motivational book about adversity that he has had to overcome in his life and the importance of giving back.

How often do you get to sit and talk with someone who is an expert in the areas of diversity, sustainability, climate change, and reform justice? This episode we get to dive in to all of these areas with Colorado State University professor of Education and author / co-author of over 19 books, Dr. Bill Timpson.

Long interested in issues of sustainability, peace, and equity, these topics are reflected in Bill's scholarship. His research, in part supported by a National Kellogg Fellowship and a Fulbright Fellowship, has focused on these topics from a global perspective.

Currently, Bill and colleagues are focusing on the use of case studies as a tool for growth and learning in geographic and social communities. Case studies reflect grassroots learning and community building that is occurring globally, which can be facilitated and shared through the increased availability of new technologies.
