I learned about how many different organizations Lebron James works for that many people don’t know. He is giving people who don’t have a voice one from where the place he’s from. Lebron made a school for kids in 2nd grade to 4th grade but every year there adding a grade. Theres also a learning place for parents.
What I learned about Social Justice “work” and/or Civil and Human rights “work” from this fieldwork:
I learned about how much action lebron is taking in comparison to other athletes. He really supports Collin K. We learned about how strongly lebron feels about using his platform for the better.
