Encore: Bill Strickland on life, and the art of making the impossible possible

Back in the mid-1960s Bill Strickland was a directionless public school student in Pittsburgh who didn’t really see a path for success for him or his fellow lower class, minority student friends. Then, one day he walked past a classroom and saw a teacher sitting at a pottery wheel and that moment, and how he responded to it, changed his life. And since then has changed the lives of countless young people not only in Pittsburgh, but around the country and beyond.

When I was around seven years old my mom bought me a color block sweater from JCPenney. I don t know what it was about that sweater, because I was a shy kid in general, but I loved it. I felt like that sweater was me; it showed who I was on the inside.
