THE SECRET IS OUT!!

I’ve been working on a little something for our youth, our schools, our police, our nation!

My first song has been published: School is Now in Session. Press the link below to preview it! You're going to love it. If you have a child in school, or know a SRO (School Resource Officer), or a Principal of a school... let them hear it!

Every Hallway, Every Classroom, Every Student needs a Guardian!

If you like it, share it, If you LOVE it share it some more!

TOMORROW… SCHOOL IS NOW IN SESSION!

I’ve been waiting to share this!

While preparing “DB’s Tribute to the SRO” for the 2026 NASRO National School Safety Conference, I wanted to do something different.

I wanted to create something that would continue speaking after the presentation was over.

So…I wrote a SONG.

“School Is Now in Session”

This is my musical tribute to the School Resource Officers who show up every day—not only to protect, but to mentor, listen, encourage, guide, de-escalate, build relationships, and connect with young people. To be Guardians within our schools... not Warriors.

Because school safety isn’t only about responding when something goes wrong.

It’s also about building relationships before something goes wrong.

My hope is that this song becomes an anthem of encouragement for SROs and a reminder to all of us that safer schools require law enforcement, educators, parents, students, and communities working together.

And TOMORROW…

🎧 “School Is Now in Session” officially drops! (Spotify, itunes, IG, Youtube music and more)

To the SROs who keep showing up…
To the officers building bridges with young people…
To the men and women protecting our schools while helping shape lives…

THIS ONE IS FOR YOU.

🔥 Turn it up.
🔥 Share it with an SRO.
🔥 Send it to your school community.

🎶 SCHOOL IS NOW IN SESSION! 🎶

THINKING IN THE AGE OF AI

What an incredible evening at the Winter Park Library! City of Winter Park - Government, Winter Park Library

A room filled with residents from Winter Park, and surrounding communities came together not simply to hear about Artificial Intelligence—but to THINK, QUESTION, LEARN, LAUGH, and ENGAGE.

During Thinking in the Age of AI, we explored some important questions:
Is AI sentient? Does AI have bias? How are algorithms influencing human thinking? Is AI a weapon—or a tool? And how do we embrace AI without surrendering the qualities that make us uniquely human?

One of the highlights for me was watching people lean in, ask questions, challenge ideas, and interact with the information.

That’s what I want from an audience. I don’t simply want people to listen. I want people THINKING.

Winter Park Library Public Technology Manager Andrew Montanez shared:
“What stood out to me most was how effortlessly Dwayne connected with every person in the room, even those tucked away in the very back, and made difficult topics feel approachable instead of uncomfortable. You can tell he is a naturally gifted speaker, but also someone who has spent years truly honing his craft. There are a few people in the world who have combined both into such a tempered and compelling presence.”

Andrew, thank you. Those words mean a great deal to me.

And thank you to the Winter Park Library team for creating a space where our community can have thoughtful conversations about technology and our future.

My message about AI is simple:
Don’t fear it. Understand it.
Question it. Learn to use it.
But NEVER stop thinking for yourself.

AI will undoubtedly help shape our future.

The bigger question is: Who will WE become as humans while it does?

THINK CRITICALLY. STAY CURIOUS. SHAPE YOUR FUTURE.

“PHENOMENAL”

Was the word from Dr. Tillman, Principal of Dinkins Middle School in Nashville m, TN after a FULL day of Professional Development.

They say a picture says a 1000 words.

Well, if that is true, what are the 1,000 words these pictures are saying after a full day of PD? What is the video saying?

These educators/leaders learned lThe Power of Building a Winning Team, Understanding Behavior Styles, learning how to Flex,Conflict Resolution. Managing Stress. as well as several interactive activities throughout the day.

After a full day's workshop. And staying an additional 20 minutes for Q and A. Teachers were still excited, happy, and smiling.

I even received a standing ovation!! (After 7 plus hours!!). GOD IS SO GREAT!!

I received several Thank you’s and excellent accommodations.

There were a few that stood out. At the end, the three black men in the room came. One said, “Brother, I was hoping you were going to be good. But my hope... was not good enough for what you delivered, You are an exceptional presenter. Thank you.”

The second one, said, “man, I'm used to being on my phone and falling asleep during these profession developments. With you, I could not close my eyes because I wanted to see what was coming next. You did that thing, brother.”

And the last one said, “This was about the best professional development. I've attended. I hate these things. 'Cause they're always long and boring, and I'm just ready to go. But with yours, I'm still here talking to you, I don’t know how you did that”

I highlight these three black men, because oftentimes, we're each other's worst critic. And that has often been my litmus test, when the brothers tell me. When the brothers share their experience, I know, it was a job well done, … my good and faithful servant.

People aren't exhausted with a full day of professional development. They're exhausted with a full day of boring, professional development, where the presenter is not engaging, is not inspiring. is not revealing, Is not intriguing, And does not prick their consciousness.

I believe everyone wants to grow and be a better person, or at least most.

When you're able to capture all of the VARC modalities of learning within an engagement, you will always keep the people captured.

That is what I do.

No yelling, no hype, no fluff, little entertainment, but LOTS of engaged learning and transformative content.

That’s what I do!

Are you all aware of FLOCK Cameras? How many flock cameras are in your neighborhood? A friend just informed me about this today. It is WOW!

Many cities, including Los Angeles have cancelled their contracts. Also, some AI systems have been programmed to view darker skin as criminals, which means what happened to this woman could easily happen to many more innocent civilians. It is worth educating yourself, and discussing with your city council and local police departments.

Mass surveliance may be more damaging that it is good. There are over 100,000 cameras in the US now. Powered by AI. This is something communities should be discussing RIGHT NOW!

You have to be the advocate for your own community... noone is coming to save you! Is FLOCK a weapon or a tool?

Visit: Deflock.org and see what's happening across the country to address this issue.
