Episode description

Christopher 2X is driven by the plight of the poor and wants to help them transform their mindset.

After serving a seven-year prison sentence for drug trafficking in the 1990s, 2X become both an anti-violence advocate and a community spokesperson on issues of violence and at-risk youth.

2X has become a trusted face and voice for the poor and disenfranchised. After a police shooting in Louisville left an African-American teenager dead in 2004, 2X was instrumental in calming the community’s anger after the police officer’s acquittal. That’s when he discovered his gift for defusing angry situations.

2X has been honored for his work to bring peace and justice to vulnerable communities through neighborhood groups like the Hood 2 Hood Movement.
