I LOVE THIS!

Totally agree...we need to start working together and put that competitive spirit against each other to rest. Blkem brought a solution to the table but we're facing difficulties with our partners.

Who put NY on vibrate?

Hello cousins,

I haven't been on much lately due to conflicts in where I want to take Blkem. It has been really a challenging process and still continues to be. After 4 years and finally launching a Safety App for the community, there's the behind the scenes issues that you do not see, especially when you're supposed to be in a partnership with other Black-Owned entities. It seems like BOEs rather take the glory than share the glory to help the masses. I ain't cut out that way!

I am a huge advocate for collaboration, HONEST work, and helping people and communities in need. Once people move the goalpost, I tend to distance myself because I don't want my noble ethics be tainted with immoral constructs that involves greed.

While I pride myself in launching such a platform for the community, the support is not there and that burden becomes heavier and heavier each year. From what I have seen since launch, Black Empowerment is only exciting as long as it's beneficial and if there's work that needs to be done, many people walk away without even trying. As a really really good friend told me a month ago.."I spent over 4 years trying to do my part in saving the Black community, now it is time to save yourself and then circle back".

The conflict that I have been dealing with is staying the course, or switching direction that ultimately leads me back to Black Empowerment focused strategies.

I am not saying that this is the end all for Blkem...i'm just saying that I have to refocus my prioritizes before dialing back.

Hope you all understand!

*** On other notes, I have one fun project (a Blkem bae inspired project) that I am working on NOT connected to Blkem and possibly starting another that will be connected to Blkem, in a way.

1. Positive venting is speaking things into existence that would create a positive outcome.

2. Yes…participation. It closes the door on growth if there is a lack thereof. Plan is to market and engage.

3. Making ways

Not ALL of us…. Not ALL the time, either!!

Y’all come on down and introduce yourselves!!

See look I’ll start. #FashionistaFridays #FashionFridays

Sometimes I think “nailed it,” and then I think, “I look like I’m hammering nails at the train yard.”

Hmmmmmmmmmmm

As a people, we can't wait for everyone to agree on how to improve our community. Those of us who have a vision and a plan, must move forward.
