Education is

our most powerful weapon

for Liberation.

Join me as I guest host on WURD-900 a.m., “Black Talk Radio,” Friday, August 1^st, 4 pm – 7 pm. http://900amwurd.com. 

We’ll be broadcasting live from the Black Star Film Festival in Philadelphia. Our topic of discussion is “Independent film making and the impact of telling our own stories.” Call in to offer your point of view: 866-361-0900 or 215-634-8065.

Education is key for the liberation of our minds and ultimate triumph over oppression. However education reaches far beyond the classroom, with its traditional books and methods. Mass communication plays a major role in enlightenment. Formats span a variety of mediums, including broadcast, print, and of course the Internet. The impressive array of talent represented in the Black Star Film Festival hearkens back to a great tradition in Black film making and photography that includes innovators such as Oscar Micheaux, Gordon Parks, and Melvin Van Peebles. So listen up!

Celebrate Life!

Follow your passions.

Allow life to be a cause

for celebration.

Well Hello Everyone (whoever's out there),

It's been 21 long days since I last visited you on my blog. But today I return. And I am grateful. Lots of life has happened since July 9th. And, as time unfolds, I hope to share some of these personal experiences with you. But for now, just know that I give thanks and praise for each and every day, and fully realize that gifts of the universe abound. For you my dear friends, my wish is the same for you as it is for me:  Focus on your passions. Celebrate life. Please remember that each moment is indeed, "Precious." Asante Sana. Peace & Blessings Always.

Are you willing to change?

Let go of that old

Useless baggage that always

Blocks you from greatness.

 Whether it’s habitual lateness, procrastination, fear, poor health habits, financial instability, self-doubt or self-sabotage, let it go. Choose to rise to your greatest potential now, in this lifetime. Choose to be happy. Choose to be free. Do it now.

Set intentions. Let
your intuition fuel your
imagination.

“Wisdom”

Lady Dove on a recent Sunday afternoon

Own what you know.  Yet

still realize that you don’t

know what you don’t know.

that it truly is.
