I remember standing on the front porch of this little shotgun house we lived in, and a lady walked up to my mother and said, I’d like to enroll your son in a new program called Head Start. It was the first year, and they were looking for children who fit my profile: poor, African-American, rural. My mother said: Of course! Sign him up. And there began my love of books and reading.
