A little about me . I am originally from Columbus Mississippi I went to high school in Memphis and got a scholarship to Mississippi Valley State University. I then transferred to Tennessee State and majored in animal science. I played football there as well and went into  the workforce as a professional security k-9 handler.

While doing private security I was exposed to people of various backgrounds and ethnicities. I then revived my football career by playing arena football and in the process of playing football I learned how important nutrition and physical maintenance is to peak performance. I have learned a lot in my few years on the work force much of which I feel should be outlined, called to the surface and confronted by the black diasporatic communities.

I'm very observant and inquisitive and hopefully those qualities will be made manifest in my writing. - Dedrick Tucker aka Blaquelion
