LoLo Jones, from poverty to the Olympics

LoLo Jones recently made news regarding her public announcement that she is still a virgin, and proud to be so. The olympian now is making news as a part of Team USA. She currently holds the American record for the 60 meter hurdles, and is a veteran of the Olympic Games. She was a participant in the 2008 Beijing games, but in the 100 meter hurdles tripped on the ninth hurdle, after having been favored to win that event.

LoLo is a perfect example of the American Dream. She used her talent, and hard work, to get out of poverty, and make a better life for herself. The above video is a fantastic piece explaining her childhood, and her rise from poverty.
