Are Dallas Black Men Not Good Leaders?
This Dallas area sista has been making the rounds on social media for making a sweeping generalization of Black men
Educated Sistas…Stop Seeking Validation from these Money Loving Corporations
Yet again, I read in Wall Street Journal and Forbes magazine about educated sistas complaining about diversity and inclusion in the workplace lol…oh boy… I did a video about this topic earlier this year, where other sistas were front and center in the biggest business magazines in the world, whining about not having a safe space to succeed in the workplace…oh my…really people lol? I even read where one PhD sista complained that because she has a PhD in social studies or something like that, that she should be making the same money as a white guy with a PhD in STEM. Are you kidding me? Stop that lol.
Workplace Racism-Ready to Quit and Start a Business? WAIT! Talk 2 Me First
Her child was like, under 5 yrs old or something like that. Her friends and family encouraged her to save up some money, quit, and start her own business. She hesitated for some time, but after something at work was the last straw, she took that leap of faith and started her own business. I think it was either beauty or fashion related, I forget. And some of you know how I feel about those passion fields lol. But she seemed smart as she was telling me her story.
She used most of her savings, which included part of her rent. And I think you know the rest. She and her child were homeless. Where were those friends and family who encouraged her to take that senseless risk? She was in tears thinking about the fact that her child had no roof over her head or food to eat.
Will AI Leave You Jobless, On the Streets This Winter? Act now before it’s too late!
Before ChatGPT was unleashed in Nov 2022, most people had no clue about what AI can do. About 8 months later, not only do most people know about it, there are already predictions that hundreds of millions of workers will lose their jobs over the next 5 years. The World Economic Forum just released a study that predicts this ominous future.
Could Madame CJ Walker Have Become a Billionaire?
After becoming successful, she adopted social activism into her business model. That’s fine, but I think she should have sold her supply chain operation as a service so that she could then sell her hair and beauty business to someone else. She could then charge them for supply chain management. Next, she could’ve serviced black clothing manufacturers, food companies/farmers, oil companies, insurance products, funeral home supplies, and other types of black owned businesses.
The Dark Business and Land Theft Behind the Lake Lanier History
But why don’t the history books tell us to follow the true money trail?
Today, a lot of us preach to each other that we need our own businesses and infrastructure. But what many fail to realize is that indeed, we did! Between the mid 1890s until around 1905 (and even beyond), we were pretty much self sufficient in many cities across the nation. In other words, we were a nation within a nation. Oh, but “they” couldn’t have that. We were a significant threat, not only from and independence standpoint, but also because back then, our people knew the REAL truth about our identity and property ownership.
Reparations Season 2023: This 4th of July, Let’s Evolve Our Community
So from now on, don’t let the 4th of July go by because this land was founded by genocidal thieves. Let it be a reminder to get back what was stolen from us. We should be more affluent than we are if we get restored to us what is owed. It is not impossible. Don’t let others deter us.
Should Rihanna have Hired a Well-Qualified Sista CEO instead?
Now of course, there are gonna be some hardcore Rihanna fans who will blast this expert as a hater. But keep in mind that all the celebrities who have similar businesses are not the savvy business minds you think. Are they entrepreneurs with ideas? Yes, just like many of you are. But not all entrepreneurs are seasoned business experts. Otherwise, most of our street hustler entrepreneurs would be business experts lol.
