The Final Word

"When you play in a band or you play in an orchestra, regardless of your ethnicity or your underrepresentation, we all get to choose from the same notes, and we all have this common goal. So, I felt this sense of belonging."

(Tuba Player and Author Richard Antoine White on Fresh Air. He's the Principal Tuba in the Santa Fe Symphony and the New Mexico Philharmonic.)

His memoir is titled "I am Possible: A Story of Survival, a Tuba, and the Small Miracle of a Big Dream."
