New Face of Presidency

"Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We
are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek."

"Focusing your life solely on making a buck shows a certain poverty of ambition.
It asks too little of yourself. Because it's only when you hitch your wagon to
something larger than yourself that you realize your true potential."
"If you're walking down the right path and you're willing to keep walking,
eventually you'll make progress."

Blackness is Good

Im still one the fence about Black History month not only because its the shortest month in the year, but also because every day Black history is made and I live the life. However, there is no WAY that I can ignore the reason and struggle made to bring it into existence. The fact remains that schools refuse to teach children the REAL history, so WE as a community MUST step up. I always do projects with my children to make sure they are knowledgeable. This week I decided to teach my daughter about the great things that come from HBCU's. This event happened 2 years ago at one of my alma maters...THIS is just the tip of the iceburg for the kind of education you will get.
