FAIRFIELD — “You are more than your circumstances.”
With more than 70 Armijo High School students in attendance Wednesday afternoon as part of a Black History Month presentation, newly elected Suisun City Councilwoman Lori Wilson stressed that phrase as she spoke about the obstacles she faced growing up in an abusive home, and as a single mother in high school.
Wilson began the program by describing the day when she was 8 and her teacher told her “Lori, you are more than your circumstances.”
