‘Just arrived in Washington DC, met up with the guys distributing my documentary ‘War Child’, it is due for release on Nov 14th, and there will be a big launch in NYC. I have been waiting for it to come out.

I am speaking at Frostburg University today, so will be on my way there soon, I hear it is in the middle of nowhere, and it is a long but nice drive, I am hoping that I will received the same reception as I did at Coastal Carolina in Myrtle Beach.

One love in the struggle,

Lecture touring in Carolina University

Today I kicked off the first date of my speaking and lecture tour, we began at Coastal Carolina University and it was amazing. It was sold out and there were about 1000 students there, I was a little nervous as I always get when I have to testify my story, but I know how important it is to do so, to speak for people that are not able to speak for themselves.

The speech went well and I got a standing ovation. We are now off to NYC, where we will be for a few days, I have a couple of meetings and interviews to do while I am there, anyway I am jet lagged and can hardly keep my eyes open, so all I will say is…

…one love in the struggle,

JAL
