98,000 Miles of Hope | The Blake Late Show with Ron Blake | Art, Healing & the Human Spirit

✍️ 98,000 miles. 34,766 people. 95 languages. One message — hope. This week on The Morning Show, we welcome Ron Blake, the creator of the Blake Late Show — a decade-long, cross-country social art project that has touched tens of thousands of lives and inspired two award-winning documentaries. For the past 10 years, Ron has traveled across America collecting messages of unity, resilience, and compassion — written in 32 Sharpie colors on more than 500 giant foam boards. What began as one man’s mission of personal recovery became a movement of collective healing, creative expression, and human connection. His journey is now the focus of multiple films — including I Am, a Student Production Award®–winning documentary by Arizona twin filmmakers — and The Blake Project, which captures the transformative power of art born from trauma. Through laughter, art, and storytelling, Ron Blake reminds us that even in our darkest moments, we can still create something that brings light. 🌈 Follow Ron’s journey: 📸 Instagram: @blakelateshow 📘 Facebook: Blake Late Show 💼 LinkedIn: Ron Blake 📧 Email: rblake5551@hotmail.com Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 6:39 Ron Blake Interview 🎙️ The Morning Show with Melissa Farley & Marshall Shore Your morning.
