This keynote is intimate, cinematic, and soulful. It's about the quiet, faithful light that guides someone through the in-between spaces, the hallway seasons of doubt, transition, or invisibility. A lantern doesn't flood a stadium; it makes the next step possible. You invite the audience to become that kind of light for children of color: not occasional spotlights, but dependable glow. The keynote becomes a story of how small lights change big lives.
