YouTube Spotlight ~ Freehling Finds
In this week’s edition, Bill visits Fredericksburg’s Faded & Company Barber Shop and Faded & Company Barber Academy at 2215 Emancipation Hwy. and talks with owner Antoine Carey. Antoine learned the barber trade while incarcerated, and, when released, started and grew his barber shop into a barber academy that helps at-risk youth achieve a barber career. Antoine’s story has been documented in an autobiography titled “From Whom Much is Given” and a documentary film titled “Fade in Full: The Story of Antoine Carey". For more information about Antoine Carey, his businesses, and speaking career go to fadedandcompany.com.

Freehling Finds is always looking for new topics to feature in upcoming editions.
