As someone who is social justice oriented, he sees education as one of the most powerful mechanisms in breaking the cycles of mass incarceration and poverty that malign people of color in the United States. He has been a teacher, administrator and continues to work at the district level in urban settings, utilizing those experiences to empower stakeholders in schools and school communities.Follow Sam on Instagram: @adjustyourlenses
