Tonight on the program I am so proud to have a former student of mine, and all-around credit to his species, Andrew Vai. He’s a Pacific Islander, who has smashed all stereotypes, by becoming a force in the spoken-word world. He’s appeared on HBO, been involved in with the writing program ROOTS and Youth Speaks.
