Ron Blake is on a now five-year cross-country odyssey to overcome PTSD (from a rape) and finally become a guest on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. He gave a TEDx talk about the significance of this show in his recovery. A moment of laughter (from that show) on a suicidal night changed everything for him. Ron has spent 14,000 hours of effort to get on this show for just five minutes. It is symbolic and important. He has met 32,071 total strangers one by one along the way who have written amazing stories of trauma and triumph in 94 languages on 494 giant foam poster boards. It is stunning to see. And the artwork represents that no one is alone in healing. Blake has spoken at 27 colleges, testified before a Senate Judiciary Committee, been featured in an Emmy nominated documentary, and received a letter of thanks from Pope Francis for his inspirational work.
