Helping People and Redemption | The Legalist - Guest Ricardo Gonzalez

Hi, I'm Lee Davis attorney and owner of Lee Davis Law LLC here in Atlanta Georgia and this is the Legalist. So welcome to another episode. As you can see this is another casual version of our video series due to the Covid 19 crisis. But today I have a very special guest and I'll introduce him in just a moment, but before I do that I want to tell you a little bit about why we're doing this episode today. We're filming this during a lot of the unrest over the recent police brutality and the backlash to the black lives matter movement and so today this is a very appropriate topic for this point in time in our country's history. But before we get started with Ricardo, I wanted to relate a short little story that actually kind of shaped the person that I am and the way that I see the world in some ways. It's I guess you could call this one of my four core memories in life that kind of made me who I am. So when I was about 10 years old I lived in a neighborhood in Louisville, Kentucky and it was like most neighborhoods in Louisville, all white and the first black couple moved in with their child who was a couple years younger than me down at the end of our street and for whatever reason I really really liked him we used to play a lot. He was very athletic he was always trying to teach me how to do a front-flip which he could do standing still. which I never got, I landed on my head many many times, but he was always just a great guy and I really really enjoyed him as a friend and one day we were playing in his front yard when this neighbor who was kind of the neighborhood bully came out and for whatever reason was having a bad day. #LeeDavis #TheLegalist #LeeDavisLaw #RicardoGonzalez
