    Voyage Chicago: The Road to Social Entrepreneurship

    “I’ve had an interest in public affairs for quite some time. My introduction to being a social entrepreneur comes from my parents who have both served (and continue to) in public service. However, it was more than likely the countless times I tagged along with my grandmother to Southwest Priority Board meetings in Dayton, Ohio that sparked my interest in finding my identity as a social entrepreneur.” Read More #Dayton #SAVVYConsultingandCommunications #socent #MoniqueWingard

    Malissa Williams | Reform & Equal Justice

    On November 29, 2012, Timothy Russell and Malissa Williams died from bullet wounds sustained after a high-speed chase with the Cleveland Division of Police. Officers fired 137 shots at the car occupied by the two unarmed residents. Although officers were reprimanded, no charges were immediately filed. One-year after this senseless tragedy, I had the privilege of aiding in the development of a media strategy. The goal was to not only raise awareness about the case, but ultimat

    #ENDALZ | 2013

    Yesterday was a much different experience. Sometimes people either walk by without even so much as a smile or saying hello. Not today. Instead of me having to do most of the talking, I listened. My heart and prayers go out to the women who stopped to share memories of their loved ones – even through tears for one in particular. If you know someone currently caring for a family member or that has lost a close friend or relative to this disease, encourage them to visit ALZ.ORG

    After the Verdict

    Photos Taken: July 20, 2013 July 15, 2013: My post verdict feelings are focused on keeping the current momentum of unity in the black community and beyond. Many, regardless of color recognize this as being unjust and baffling. How 6 women – some of whom may be mothers – could unanimously decide not to convict a MAN of shooting a CHILD, through the heart, for being suspicious… I simply do not understand. I would also like all other families and communities dealing with similar

    Stand Your Ground

    It is always a joy to worship with Mt. Zion! Tonight marks the end of a week long revival and I was truly blessed by tonight’s word. Rev. Dr. Ozzie E. Smith, Jr, Senior Pastor of Covenant United Church of Christ in South Holland, IL offered a much different perspective on what it really means to “Stand Your Ground.” As believers, we are called to not simply be hearers of the word, but doers. This is no easy task and we must stand firm in our walk. Dr. Smith gave the following

    I must say… The list in Cleveland.com is pretty good. But I have 25 More Things to Do. Service and volunteerism are free, fun, and also pretty cool if I do say so myself. So here it is: 25 Free Things to Do in Cleveland (For the Civic-Minded Who Know that Service Can be Fun!) “One of the marvelous things about community is that it enables us to welcome and help people in a way we couldn’t as individuals.” ― Jean Vanier, Community And Growth Register, Run, and Show Your Suppo
