sunday mornings were always easy in the jeffrey house. the young man who knew he wanted to be attorney would argue with his mom but failure is a good teacher. he lost those arguments and now hakeem goes to church every weekend, sometimes that one where his church family is at cornerstone baptist or somewhere else in the district where he can meet his constituents where they are. he remembers that after church on sundays he'd go to nano's house where there was an open door at his grandmother's house for the entire neighborhood and elders to come through with food and conversation. a young hakeem listening to everything but usually just trying to catch the score of the jets game. [ laughter ] this is where wisdom gets passed down. and now guided by the faith and wisdom of leaders like jim clyburn, greg meeks, john lewis, steny hoyer, nancy d'alesandro pelosi.
