The Courage to Speak

February 2024

Shareece came forward publicly as one of 12 former Colton High players to file a lawsuit over alleged childhood sexual abuse by a school athletic trainer. He gave a national television interview on ESPN's Outside the Lines, voluntarily disclosing his experience to create space for other survivors.

Going public took courage. It also opened doors for other survivors who needed to see someone like them speak first.

The $632 Uber Ride

May 2017

After his connecting flight out of Chicago O'Hare was cancelled late Sunday night, Shareece opened the Uber app and requested a ride to Buffalo, New York. An Iranian refugee named Hadi Abdollahian accepted. Nine hours and $632 later, Shareece arrived at 1 Bills Drive at 6:58 AM, two minutes before his first voluntary OTA with the Buffalo Bills.

His agent Tam tweeted about it, Shareece posted the receipt, and it went viral. Bills sponsor Bluerock Energy covered the fare. Shareece forwarded the reimbursement to Hadi.
