Today is the perfect day to roll out the latest installment of Acknowledgements, born out of my book FIRESTORM. The series is about the people who have inspired me in the wake of the devastating great Los Angeles wildfires of 2025. Today is a day all about people.
Around the country today millions of us will gather for the No Kings Day protests.
I’ll be out for a very special live broadcast on MS NOW at 4PM ET / 1PM PT I’ll be anchoring from Gloria Molina Grand Park in Downtown Los Angeles. I hope you’ll join me in person if you’re in L.A. — or watch along with us on MS NOW.
Few people have inspired me more than Professor Baba Onochie Chukwurah.
“If you have, I have” were the five words Professor Chukwurah spoke to me one week after the Eaton Fire devastated his family’s store, Rhythms of the Village, in Altadena.
Words I’ll never forget.
It was incredible to see him again and give him a copy of FIRESTORM.
This is the fifth video in a series. Watch more:
FIRESTORM is now a New York Times bestseller and number one Los Angeles Times bestseller. It’s is available in print, ebook, and digital audiobook now.
