An absolutely superb testament to the power of entrepreneurship to improve the lives of youth from low income communities. Powerful and moving, a worthwhile read for anyone interested in social justice and/or educating youth

I Said Yes! is a true testament to the power of one individual's determination to make a change in our inner-cities. I liked this book because it was written in a very genuine and honest way which I found completely refreshing. Ms. Kantor's personal anecdotes were very engaging and reflective of the changes working with those trying to get out of poverty made in her life. She truly cares about young people and knows how to motivate them to succeed as entrepreneurs. Striving businesspeople, teachers, social entrepreneurs and those who want to make a social impact should definitely read this book. It's a primer for anyone who wants to get out of their comfortable armchair and make a difference.
