Description

Introduced to the criminal life at an early age on the merciless streets of the South Bronx, William Licea, aka Cuban Will, the son of Cuban immigrants spent most of his youth and adult life in prison, but nothing could prepare him for being released back into society at nearly forty years of age, with no life skills other than the will to redeem himself and atone for his past sins. At age thirty-eight he started at the bottom of the New York skyscraper business as a day laborer and gradually worked his way up to being an industry leader where he continues to give other inmates a second chance by employing those willing to work in the construction industry. The title, From Burning Blocks To Building Blocks, is not only metaphor, but reflects Will’s actual past and present life.
