Sometimes it takes an encounter with a special human being to realize how privileged and happy a life you lead. Emmanuel Jal fulfills the role of this special human being on a daily basis- a former child of war, he now raps about his experience and promotes peace through his lectures. The University of Miami was fortunate enough to have him visit campus on Monday, and it was an absolutely amazing experience. Although not scheduled for a concert, Emmanuel performed two songs as well as speaking to the audience about his life story and his goals. Afterwards, he was more than happy to meet with everyone in attendance, sign items, and take pictures.
