The power of the people is greater than the people in power.

We voted. Now we hold them accountable.

Find your public servants. Save them in your phone. Track what they promised, and check in until they deliver.

I'm a combat veteran, program coordinator, and civic educator. I teach everyday people how power works, how to get answers in writing, and how to hold the people they elect accountable.

The accountability cycle

Democracy is a project, and you are the manager.

01

Know them

Type your address. Save every public servant to your phone.

Find yours

02

Write down the promise

Screenshot what they said they'd do. That's your baseline.

03

Check in

Find their town hall. Every month or every three months, ask: "You said this. Where are we?"

04

Decide

If they deliver, rehire them. If they don't, replace them.

Plan. Vote. Monitor. Evaluate. Repeat.

Agent Kodak in action

From Trayvon Martin to Breonna Taylor to George Floyd to Nolan Xavier Wells. The fight has stayed the same. The tools have grown.

Lawrence has stood up for civil and human rights for more than a decade. In the classroom, he teaches his students what injustice looks like and equips them to push back: writing, data collection, storytelling, photography, videography, civic apparel, and more.

On the street, he documents. Los Angeles, May 29, 2020: his photo led the Los Angeles Times investigation into police tactics at the George Floyd protests. The New York Times ran images of him marching. ESPN aired the footage.

Speaking & workshops

Four talks. Built for people who were never taught civics.

Book Lawrence

Democracy Is a Project, and You Are the Manager

The accountability cycle in plain language. Know your public servants, write down what they promised, check in, and decide whether they keep the job. Audiences leave with every official saved in their phone.

Best for: High schools, colleges, churches, community groups.

Documentation Beats Conversation

How to get answers in writing: public records requests, written complaints and letters to officials. Real examples of agencies answering paper when they ignored phone calls.

Best for: Community organizations, advocacy groups, students.

We Paid For That

Our tax dollars built it, so why are we paying twice? Drug prices, stadiums, data centers and corporate deals, with the receipts, and what to ask the people who approved them.

Best for: Colleges, civic and labor groups, conferences.

A Case Study: Nolan Xavier Wells

How a death investigation works, step by step, and where it can break down. Built from public records. Questions, not accusations.

Best for: Law and criminal justice classes, HBCUs, community forums.

For HBCUs, high schools, middle schools, churches, veteran groups and community organizations. Interactive, and adaptable for teens or adults. Full details and the speaker sheet.
