Hoop Dreams: Control Your Destiny
Endorsements and Testimonials - The Life Skills Curriculum
Bill Clinton, Former President of the United States.
“He's a remarkable young man, you know. And I -- what I took away from it is, here's a young fellow that made up his mind he was going to make something of his life and try to live out his dream. He's committed to continuing his education until he gets his degree. He still wants to play pro basketball. But whatever happens to him, he's going to have a good life. And I hope that Hoop Dreams and I hope that Arthur Agee both, serve as a kind of an inspiration to kids all across this country who are growing up in very hard circumstances. They can make it. They can be something. And I'm very grateful that he came down to Arkansas to go to college. He's a terrific young man and I wish him well.”
