From the tough streets of Brooklyn to the highest office in the city, his journey is a testament to resilience, ambition, and the often messy reality of leadership. Eric Adams' life is a story of triumph against the odds. Growing up amid poverty and violence, he learned early that survival required courage, grit, and determination.
