I would like to now call on a remarkable person who has probably laid a costlier sacrifice on the altar of our modern troubles than almost any other American, and who has responded by devoting her life to trying to help us work our way out of it, Dr. Lonise Bias. Thank you for being here. [Dr. Bias described her efforts to encourage positive change in the Nation following the drug-related death of her son Len and the murder of her son Jay, explaining her values of unconditional love, community, faith, and a commitment to character over image. She added that parents must monitor the flow of information that their children receive and impress upon them the importance of values and morals.]
