Stanley Tookie Williams grew up on the streets of South Central LA where he was a founder and leader of the Crips. In 1981, he was convicted of four murders and was executed in December of 2005. Tookie openly renounced his prior life and gang violence. He educated himself.
He became a messenger of hope.
He found his own redemption.
