I Am Somebody
Recently a group of students from Northwestern University partnered with Triple Threat to offer an Academics workshop for students living in Jericho Circle, an Aurora Housing Authority community. One of the NWU students, Jessica Holden, told of her own experience growing up as a disadvantaged youth. She shared her story with under-resourced youth to encourage them to dream big and reach to their potential. And she did it through an incredible poem she wrote titled “I Am Somebody.” Click HERE to listen to Jessica’s amazing true story.
