Antoinette's Biography
“We are going to all die today.” On August 20, 2013, Antoinette Tuff, a school bookkeeper, heard those words and made a life changing choice. Rather than run in fear from a potential school shooter waving an AK-47 assault rifle, she chose to stay and negotiate. Antoinette used “Tuff Tactics: Compassion, Confidence, and Control” to convince the shooter to put down the weapon and surrender. That day she saved more than 1,000 lives at the Ronald E. McNair Discovery Learning Academy in the Atlanta metro area. This is the only school active shooter situation in the US that ended without death or injury to school students, faculty, parents or shooter himself. She has been acclaimed by President Obama, lauded a CNN Hero, wrote a bestselling book, and inspired a Lifetime network movie “Faith Under Fire: The Antoinette Tuff Story” starring Grammy Award winner Toni Braxton. Today, she is the executive director of Kids on the Move for Success. Kids on the Move for Success believes Tuff Tactics: Compassion, Confidence and Control are foundational elements in the success of children now and in the future. |
