Quay offers a unique perspective on racism, prejudice, and hatred in society.  His insight stems not only from a formal education (B.A. in English, Bloomsburg University, PA), but also from travel to all 50 states, 27 countries, and 5 continents; his presentations to more than 500,000 people in the last eleven years; and his specific interactions with blue-collar America during his fifteen years of labor in the areas of landscaping, construction, and farming. Few speakers have such a diverse background from which to offer their reflections on America and the world. This blend of knowledge and experience helps him connect with every member of the audience as he challenges these young men and women to examine their lives. 

Quay takes a provocative look at the labels that seemingly control our society. Using his own label of "redneck," he forces the audience to confront themselves about how labels have affected their words, actions, and beliefs. His honesty and forthrightness forces even those that disagree to take a moment and reflect on their lives and the people around them.

This engaging speaker is guaranteed to spark frank and honest discussion across your campus. It may even encourage your students to treat each other with a little more respect.
