My job brought the priest who is the CEO of Homeboys industries down to our job. He is pretty dynamic in his programming, mostly because he takes risk.

yeah Father Boyle. During his speech I could tell why he receives so much money from private donors. He knows how to bridge the gap to rich white people and East LA gang members. The way he tells his stories even the conservative ones can respect. He puts on this Mexican accent and shit. He said you can go to one of his cafe's in the barrio and get served a nice cup of coffee by a Cholla with an attitude. I was like WTF, but the white people loved it. He's a deep dude though and for some reason it felt like he was playing the audience because he understands the game and how to get money into the community.
