Cheering for those advocating for justice from the sidelines is great, but to go and march alongside fellow protesters, truly exemplifies walking in your purpose. Erica has done just that. In being vocal, using her platform, and tapping into networks, she has been able to recognize where she can come in, help, and actually BE that difference she seeks. You know she’s pulling up at the protests with some fire on her feet by way of adidas throwing that lob.

“WE STAND TOGETHER! My brothers, I got y’all for life! It’s one thing to see folks walking and showing support but to actually be there walking in it is a DIFFERENT feeling!”

-Erica Wheeler (Indiana Fever)
