On April 19, 1995, hours before Timothy McVeigh was identified, Meeink walked into the Philadelphia FBI office believing he might know who had bombed the federal building in Oklahoma City.

The Oklahoma City bombing is Meeink's final jolt. He hears the news at a corner deli, notes the truck bomb method he'd discussed in safe houses, and tells his neighborhood friends he might know who did it. The next day — before Timothy McVeigh's name is public — he walks into the FBI. He doesn't know McVeigh personally, but the circles overlap. The FBI refers him to the ADL, which asks him to speak to community groups. His first talk to a classroom of 10-year-olds is a disaster of graphic oversharing and snot-soaked shirts, but an organizer tells him he did well. He finds his footing, pitches the Philadelphia Flyers on an inner-city hockey programme called Harmony Through Hockey, and begins building the activist identity he carries today.
After leaving the movement, Meeink partnered with the Philadelphia Flyers to launch 'Harmony Through Hockey', bringing Black and white inner-city kids together through the sport.
