As the grandson of a Tuskegee airman and son of a man who was in Malcolm X’s inner circle, Theo Wilson was born with a sense of wonder and reverence for our storied past. Theo turned a widely successful TED talk into "I Was There", a TV series streaming on the History Channel. Using Slam Poetry, he creates dialogues that challenge the ideas of the American public. Theo is a trained stuntman living in Colorado. He welcomes any challenges that cross his path.
