Corey Wynne - Accepting It All

At least twice, teachers tried to deny the power of voice to Ewane Masango. They tried and failed. He went on to win public speaking competitions and now is an entertainer and public speaker with a side of entrepreneur. He's building a new digital space for people to build connections, improve health and empower their community. The Society, a new online platform, is in development and coming soon.

Originally from Oklahoma, "E" has a couple stories about being stopped by police that you have to hear. Someone complained to the police about his public displays of joy.

Favorite song: We Are The World. Favorite movies are Lion King and Coming to America.

Favorite quote is by Terry Pratchett: “Light thinks it travels faster than anything but it is wrong. No matter how fast light travels, it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it."
