Thank you for not letting tragedy break you. Thank you for your positivity. Thank you for standing up for and showing the world how wrong stereotypes can be. God bless you❤
This man, and the other members of the Exonerated Five, had a spiritual impact on me at the time when they were sent to prison. The story is far too lengthy to tell here, but I knew looking at them on TV, in that courtroom, they were not only innocent, but they were just children. I was a 40-something white woman with no connection to them what-so-ever, but that brief momentary view change my heart forever. To see him now as a mature and caring man working to right the wrongs of society is beyond wonderful. He remained always - and remains - in my prayers.
Ma’am 💕 I was a 14yr old white girland had the same experience. Thank you for putting it in words. It profoundly affected me over these years and is in large part what brought me to activism. I watched a documentary a few years back about these men and just cried and prayed over them.
This guy raped and assaulted an innocent woman, NEVER let people forget this, he was not wrongfully imprisoned, he was wrongfully released, I advise everyone to research this case! This is a disgrace to the victim and her family.
Wow what an amazing speaker he's better than most of the people on television. To be sent to prison at age fifteen, and then to come out and shining amazing.

Mr. Salaam is a credit to his race and an inspiration to humanity. We wish him well in this new endeavor wherever it may lead. He has taken this 2 by 4 that struck him in his teenage years and is building a mighty house for all to see. God bless you Yusef Salaam! If our paths in life cross, I will shake your hand.
Sometimes in life you go through horrible things, and because of that, your off and running. Start here….then run for congress. You are an amazing human being.
Well said Yusef abt growing up to see others as your father bro etc etc. What a respectable n humble man!! May GOD continue to bless n protect you n your family n all the other 4 who were wrongly convicted, from all the evils out there🙏🙏🙏✝️✝️✝️👍
You have always been an intelligent, considerate and gentle spirit. Your LAG family is keeping you lifted up in prayer! Keep being you and spreading your message! "EVERY SINGLE THING THAT HAPPENS TO YOU, HAPPENS FOR YOU! YES MY BROTHER, YES!!
Yusef, I wish you were running for president! Maybe someday? My dad use to say you have to be a liar to be a politician. Don’t ever change-Stay honest.
After all he's been thru to still have a positive attitude and to persevere, says a lot about him. The system is so unfair. I'm glad he has this opportunity! Hope he'll keep going as mayor or governor! To be wrongfully accused of anything has to be painful. To all those who still want to accuse these innocent men. Karma will serve you. Congratulations sir👏👏
👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽- so deserving! You live up to your name, and may you continue you to! 🤲🏽 I always tell students, “if you don’t like the system or want to change it, then join it!”
Congratulations Mr. Salaam 👏 👏 👏 I met you and Korey. What wonderful men your parents raised despite the injustice you faced. God truly does work in mysterious ways. Universal Law always win. That law is Karma. Karma is real! What goes around comes back around.
Just found out about him. He literally admitted to it and said it was fun in the newspaper. How the hell do scumbags like him get to walk free when there are people who are genuinely wrongly convicted?
He is such an inspiration. Satan thought prison would break him but it built him . I am in amazement that you standing as a strong man while others who suffer from the demonic animalistic treatment succumb to it . I have nothing but respect for you. I am thankful that your a fighter and a warrior for the cause. May god walk with you; guide you and protect you. Avenging angel
😢 cory had it the worst bruh I'm praying for mr corey wise he got sexually abused for years I'm glad this amazing brother is running for mayor he deserves it afetr everything the exonerated 5 has been threw

Theyre story will always break my heart and remind me of the evil nature that human beings can harbor in the mind. I'm inspired to see that he's turning this around and contributing to making a difference in our very unjust and cruel society.
Please rim for 2024 vs Trump. Joe might not win. But you my friend, have my vote. You have patience, tolerance, bigger goal, you are humanity. Life brought you to this moment. Make it so. The world is not perfect, but with my "Asian" support and your drive, we can make it so. Please run for President 2024. We all human with same hopes and dreams.
In this America, you will always be judged because of the color of the skin that the almighty put up in. Therefore, some americans are bringing the wrath of God upon themselves as judges.
I watched the Netflix movie about these strong men. I can not watch this film again because of the pain and anger I felt for them and all those black and brown ppl locked up innocently. I literately cried for hours watching this and knowing it could happen to me but that it could happen to anyone. Hope he wins in every race he runs! ❤
African Americans need to look long and hard in the mirror and tell themselves the truth . America is not home . Africa , we have been waiting for you for decades now . We need your brains so we can uplight black lives across the world . Nobody want to be associated with a losing race so it’s up to us to make it proud and prosperous!!!! You belt America once you can build Africa once and for all for future generations ❤!!!!

What? The tragedy of him getting caught for raping and murdering a woman? Or the tragedy of him being wrongfully released?

Pretty sure races don’t require accreditation.
He knew how to handle a two-by-four, that’s for sure.
He is a credit to the human race.

What a pleasure to hear Mr. Salaam speak..
I’m so inspired by this man.
Beautiful uplifting interview
This is a profile of personal strength, natural intelligence and dignity.
All things the conman knows little about.
How gullible are you
If he wins, he will represent my district and he will be my Councilman 🙂.
I am so sorry for you
So happy for this brother! May he continue to prosper…as they all should

😂
Trump won't
Love him! So happy to see him do what he was born to do! ❤️🙏🏻✌🏻
What, rape innocent women?
Wow, I’m truly inspired by this gentleman’s choice. May God bless him I’m this journey!
He got a big payout for committing crime in Central Park. Anybody would be happy with five million bucks.
@@busterbiloxi3833trumptard
That’s sad this pathetic court system is in this country, no such thing as justice.
The Central Park jogger agrees. Where’s her payout?
Nelson Mandela did 28 years in jail and came back strong 💪 ,this guy got this 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Hearing just the intro just gave me life!
🇺🇸 CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU MR SALAAM. YOU REPRESENT ALL OF OUR 😊 BEAUTIFUL, INTELLIGENT, HANDSOME, OPTIMISTIC & RESILIENT YOUNG BROTHERS.. 💪🙏❤️
Yusef, I wish you were running for president! Maybe someday? My dad use to say you have to be a liar to be a politician. Don’t ever change-Stay honest.
What a humble human being. He's a real model for all humanity.
His last name, Salaam, means peace in Arabic. This man definitely fits the name he carries.
Salaam means "lead pipe" in Central Park.
Congratulations Yusef 🏆 This is such a Well Deserved Position for you🏆
How do we help NYC Heal from the last 24 months of Violence ??

Thank you, @CBSMornings, for using the term The Exonerated Five - yes! Central Park Five has a lot of negative connotations and implies guilt.
Theyre story will always break my heart and remind me of the evil nature that human beings can harbor in the mind. I'm inspired to see that he's turning this around and contributing to making a difference in our very unjust and cruel society.

There are some politicians that believe on the old ways and they need to change their thinking because at the end nothing will be left.
May God continue to bless and keep him… 🙏🏾
I hope he runs for President one day
OK but But right NOW SEE and Support the TRUTH allow your spirit to be impacted and shout out for justiceSEE,"The Sound OF Freedom".
In this America, you will always be judged because of the color of the skin that the almighty put up in. Therefore, some americans are bringing the wrath of God upon themselves as judges.
I watched the Netflix movie about these strong men. I can not watch this film again because of the pain and anger I felt for them and all those black and brown ppl locked up innocently. I literately cried for hours watching this and knowing it could happen to me but that it could happen to anyone. Hope he wins in every race he runs! ❤
You should read a detailed account of the trial. Netflix propaganda wayyyyy off
He is the kind of Black leader we need in this country.
You are a hero Yusef Salaam.
