Black History Month: Stories that need telling with guest Colonel Arthur Nick Nicolson Retired, and current president of the Mt.Olive Cemetery Historical Preservation Society

Black History Month: Stories that need telling with guest Colonel Arthur Nick Nicolson Retired, and current president of the Mt.Olive Cemetery Historical Preservation Society

The story of Black History Month begins in 1915, half a century after the Thirteenth Amendment abolished slavery in the United States. That September, the Harvard-trained historian Carter G. Woodson, and the prominent minister Jesse E. Moorland founded the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History (ASNLH), an organization dedicated to researching and promoting achievements by black Americans and other peoples of African descent. By the late 1960s, thanks in part to the Civil Rights Movement and a growing awareness of black identity, Negro History Week had evolved into Black History Month on many college campuses.

Legacy is for the Living featuring Mr. Bruce Wesley Owner of Chicago’s Wesley’s Shoes

Legacy is for the Living featuring Mr. Bruce Wesley Owner of Chicago's Wesley's Shoes

Susan V. Bosak of the Legacy Project suggests, “Legacy is about life and living. It’s about learning from the past, living in the present, and building for the future. It is an interconnection across time, with a need for those who have come before us and a responsibility to those who come after us. A legacy may take many forms – children, grandchildren, a business, an ideal, a book, a community, a home, or some of ourselves. How many of us live so that our legacy reflects all we genuinely hold, most near and dear? How many of us are…

Living in a space called dreams have hope with Chelsea Townsend

Living in a space called dreams have hope with Chelsea Townsend

If by chance no one has told you that they love you today. I would be honored to be the first to say, I love you today! I love you because you are and have been so willing to grow. And my how you have grown! You have grown from struggling to searching. From “trying to”  to “learning how to” . You’ve grown from fear to having faith, to demonstrating your courage. You have grown in many ways, consistently demonstrating your willingness and courage to take the next step —the step toward knowing more about yourself. That is exactly why…

Thank You for your Service Then and Now: Lasting Memories

Thank You for your Service Then and Now: Lasting Memories

I am celebrating veterans and active-duty military who keep us and have kept us out of constant harm’s way, often at great costs. We are reminded that war is a part of human history. I aim to share varied war stories across age, gender, and race to include family impact and cultural legacies. The Vietnam War was my coming-of-age war. I became immersed in and confused by the concurrent war at home about the necessity of US involvement while at the same time grieving over school friends who paid the ultimate price. There were so many bold and untold stories.…

Phenomenal Woman Louise Molton says, “Yes!” to Her Power Within

Phenomenal Woman Louise Molton says, "Yes!" to Her Power Within

This month, Frankly Speaking, is focusing on phenomenal women and how we embrace and manage our universal experiences, rainbows and clouds, courage, and resolve. We are a journey, not a destination; our life is a process, not an event. Even still, we are motion, loving, serving, nurturing, encouraging, and empowering. We are love, and love does. And yes, sometimes… sometimes we get stuck between our no longer the familiar, the habits, and our not yet, who we were created to be, and we may ask, “Am I enough?” By the way, the right answer is a resounding YES! Author Ilyanla Vanzant…

Meet phenomenal woman Dr. Mamie Parker who lives her passion, her promise, and her gifts to save the planet to save ourselves.

Meet phenomenal woman Dr. Mamie Parker who lives her passion, her promise, and her gifts to save the planet to save ourselves.

Noted Karmic astrologer Dora Jones believes “Each of us comes into life with a promise, a gift, a passion, and a deep heartfelt desire.” The promise is what you have come to life to master. You have promised to overcome, resolve, or heal some aspect of your consciousness.  As you face your life experiences, you are allowed to fulfill this promise. Your responses to your experiences determine whether you fulfill or break the promise you have made to yourself. The gift is what you have come to give to life. It is the cornerstone of self-determination and self-actualization. The gift…

My goal in November is to share varied war stories across the spectrum of age, gender, and race to include family impact and cultural legacies.

Welcome to the Whimsical World of Mrs. Z featuring Caroline Zarinelli

Welcome to the Whimsical World of Mrs. Z featuring Caroline Zarinelli

The drive to do what you’re good at is instinct. It is what you were created to do. Human instinct in action is pure joy. It’s like a work of art in motion. Your instinct will draw you to the unique expression of your gifts. You can only be fruitful out of your own understanding of and connection with what is in your core.  It is the urging inside you that tells you to make your move now, to reach out now, to hold back until later, or to never give up. Instinct must merge with a purpose to give…
