But what if legacy weren't monumental at all. What if it were small, catalytic, set in motion long before anyone noticed.In 2019, I stood in front of a bronze statue in downtown Atlanta and realized I had my own understanding of legacy all backward. By my side was a kid named Kenneth Lockett. And before us stood the larger than-l ...

Every idea starts with a spark. >> My name is Martine Creor West. What's your name.Now that may sound like a simple question, but for me, it's where it all began.
