Wes Moore spoke at my college before he was a politician. He talked about the experience of writing his book The Other Wes Moore, which is a fantastic read and one I highly recommend -- I've met few people who think about the issues their communities face as deeply or take them as seriously as he does. Maryland has a good one, that's for sure.

He spoke at my college (maybe both of ours if the timeline works out) like 6 years back. Can confirm the book is a great read, and he's really a pleasant person to talk to as well.

I forgot about that book until just now! It was a summer reading assignment so at first I didn’t like it, but I got swept into it and ended up loving it!
