Eddie is no stranger to pressure. Overcoming the pressures of growing up in a community and home riddled with violence and drugs, Eddie worked hard to support his family in any way he could. Unfortunately, family pressure pulled him into a life of dealing drugs, which ultimately led to him falling victim to an armed robbery. Now a T10 complete paraplegic, Eddie helps people with spinal cord injuries and gun violence survivors through his work as the Founder of "Paralyzed From Violence."
Brave Space is a healing place for gun violence prevention professionals and survivors. We meet. We process. We heal in commUNITY.
