Jayne Amelia speaks with former foster youth, Adisa. Adisa compares himself to a lion cub who had to fight for survival all his young life against the bigger badder lions all so hungry and looking to feed. Born in Long Beach to a single mom who was declared unfit to raise her children, he grew up on the streets of Los Angeles. Adisa and his siblings were removed from her and placed in foster care. Adisa was only nine at the time (but already considered himself a "hoodlum" as he says) and was the protector of his youngest brother who was still in diapers. He became part of the foster care to prison pipeline and was incarcerated at 17 until freed at the age of 51.
He is now employed with Urban Alchemy in San Francisco’s Tenderloin cleaning up the streets and saving the lives of vulnerable people every night.
