your supporters, and future supporters is essential. Not everyone is going to sit down
and watch us on our Youtube Channel. Nor is everyone is going to listen to the audio
podcast (or even know about it).
But individuals can take a moment out of their day -- once a month -- to view, read,
and hopefully share our newsletter. Signing up only takes the click of a button. We
would love to hear from you. Tell us what you would like to see in the newsletter.
Perhaps you would like to contribute (or promote in the newsletter). Let's help each
other be continuously discovered because we are all trying to make our mark in this
world. Please do me a favor and share this with at least one person! It is greatly
appreciated. HIT US UP & CONNECT WITH US - Hit the pics (links) on the left!

So how do they compromise? The two describe it as not being easy. Still, they have
managed to come to an agreement. That agreement allows Davion to listen to his
music in his room (with reasonable volume) or simply put his headphones on. While
Sean doesn't care because he pays the bills , he can play his music as loud as

“Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small
men who find it easier to live in the world they’ve been
given than to explore the power they have to change it.
Impossible is not a fact. It’s an opinion. Impossible is not
a declaration. It’s a dare. Impossible is potential.
Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ MUHAMMAD ALI
Why Do they Get A Month?

The past is not always the distant past. Simply QUICK FACTS:
ignoring something does not mean that it does not Carter G. Woodson (father of Black History Month)
exist. Watering down or completely removing John Mercer Langston (first Black lawyer barred in
programs focused on educating our society on black Ohio in 1854)
history (i.e., Forsyth County ) does not eradicate black Hiram Rhodes Revels (first Black elected to the U.S.
folks’ contributions. It is only temporary and a dare Senate, representing Mississippi from 1870-71)
to push yourself to learn what you don’t know Shirley Chisholm (first Black female elected to U.S.
about these contributions. So, the Café offers this House of Representatives representing NY in 1968 &
then the first Black female candidate [and female
dare: do better, learn more, and embrace the fact
for that matter] to run for President)
that Black folks — like many other cultures —
