Ferguson

11/24/2014...I learned that the cop who killed Mike Brown, would not be indicted. I was numb, but not surprised. The fox judged the fox.
He was going to win and now what do we do.
We  should protest. We should register and vote. We should demand transparency from our government officials. We should hold our government officials accountable. We should run for office. We should demand accountability and sensitivity from our police departments. We should run for office.  We should engage in our communities.

Speak up..speak up..speak up.
Change the system.

Business. Empowerment. Marketing. Awareness

Marketing your business is essential.
I know my businesses value,  but do you? Who do you market your business to? Everyone. Everyone that you think can use your services.

Don't put yourself in a box but don't over extend yourself. You need to target some groups or businesses. Which means that you need to be able to articulate your message.

Do you know your message and can you articulate it?

Being empowered means that you aware!!
There are several things that I am passionate about and they are as follows: voting, voting empowerment, absentee Voting, civic engagement, restoration of rights and breast cancer awareness.

I am passionate about these issues and I make a point of informing myself and others about these issues.

I own my own business,  Opndoor communications.  I developed this firm to ensure that the community, private businesses, faith institutions, non profit organizations and government agencies are able to communicate and resolve conflict in a fair equitable manner.

Information is Power. .become informed and be empowered.
