A Proud, Resilient Mama’s Boy: Rafael Ramirez

  • 7 years ago
The final What’s Underneath episode of our month-long celebration of Black Lives Matter and Black History Month features a force of positivity, resilience, and a strong, proud “mama’s boy,” Rafael Ramirez.

A focal point in key actions for Black Lives Matter, the Columbia student's struggle with incessant prejudice has only fueled his sense of self. As Rafael states, "I don't think I'd be the person that I am if I wasn't black, and I like the person that I am.”

For the full story on a man whose passion, insight, and brave vulnerability will open your heart, watch Rafael’s episode above!
