Description:

Gregg Riley (Col., U.S. Army Retired), Inspirational Speaker and Author from the Washington, DC area will discuss and sign his first book entitled “Steps To the Promised Land”

The book focuses on solutions to the serious racial issues we face today and the plight of individuals and the communities being affected across the country. Gregg shares his leadership wisdom to help readers to develop strategies and the will to overcome life’s challenges.

Gregg is one of the most sought after motivational speakers around. His passion for helping people and organizations maximize their potential creates a one-of-a-kind unique experience for any audience. He has a strong message for the youth of America geared toward helping them understand the continued need for non-violence, peaceful resolution, and education.

His uncanny physical and voice resemblance to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. inspired him to create a one-man show entitled “A Great American Story; A Tribute to Dr. King.” This program has been well received at schools, colleges, churches and theaters nationwide.

Free and open for all!
