Welcome to the doctor's pharmacy that's F-A-R-M-A-C-Y, a place for conversations that matter.

And this is Dr. Mark Heimann.

Today's guest is Hawk Newsom, an extraordinary man, an activist at the forefront of the

new civil rights movement and president of Black Lives Matter, New York.

And he's dedicated his whole life to the betterment of his community and our nation.

He dropped out of high school and really struggled when he was younger.

And he then got went on to get his GED, his Bachelor of Science, and then a law degree.

And then he went to work for the district attorney in the Bronx and his then extraordinary

work in his community.

He's worked with the New York City, Tenants' Associations, and Social Service Groups throughout

the Bronx to help his community.

And he also founded the Bronx Sharks, an athletic club that sent numerous rescues to college

on scholarships.

He then attended prestigious Howard University Law School in Washington, ADC, and he's

worked tirelessly leading protests and seeking justice for the families of those slain by

Overs Ellis police officers.

In 2013, Hawk joined the Justice League in New York City as engaged their national campaign

to fix the broken criminal justice system.

An extraordinary guy, we're going to learn a lot about where he came from, what he's

doing, and why it's so important.

So stay tuned, that conversation is coming up next on the doctor's pharmacy.

He was a Hawk.
