In this clip from the Driven 2 Thrive Broadcast, Deon Patrick discusses the importance of writing your own obituary to be able to include meaningful accomplishments and impactful changes that you made during life. Because that is the life you lived. Deon emphasizes his new mission to raise awareness about ongoing issues, particularly wrongful convictions, in Chicago, known as the wrongful conviction capital of the world. That part of the legacy he wants to leave is being someone who fought to free innocent men.
Deon Patrick is a wrongful conviction survivor, author, and community advocate. After spending 21 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, Deon now works in violence prevention and fights for justice system reform.
