What family traditions do you have with your family?
I've started making a video with photos and video clips to share with the family, here's a peek of one of the pieces that will be included when it's done.
It follows the adventures of a young boy and his Teddy Bear who teaches him about the principles of the Black American holiday celebration of Kwanzaa.
We thought that you might want to share with your family and friends regardless of race so that they and the children can better understand what Kwanzaa is.
Have you ever attended a private family celebration or a public community celebration of Kwanzaa in your city or town?
December 26th begins the holiday celebration of Kwanzaa that is celebrated in some Black American families, this video gives a brief history about the holiday
This is a video that showcases Musical Fusion & modern storytelling in a beautiful manner...
Enjoy this old favorite Christmas song set into a video which tells a story of a modern family in a sad but all to common situation of falling on hard times & ending up homeless & a positive Christian Community Response to the family
What family holiday traditions do you have with your family?

I've been following Wayne since 2012 when he was better known as the NewsNinja.
He's been an inspiration for me as he is one of the many New Media Citizen Reporters that is going out there & reporting on the news.
The main stream major media is taking a hit to their ratings because men & women like Wayne have a voice on the internet & they are reporting what the main stream media refuses to report.
What I like about Wayne & his crew is that their voice is growing stronger & they are making good use of it. They are calling out the BS, they are calling the people to get informed & get active.
He's connected with others along the way so that they now have several people connected together.
The team is growing & expanding as people join in as others leave for new opportunities.
It is interesting to listen to the callers having a say about what is happening
202-470-6738 is the number for callers if you can get through & talk on air with the team.
I hope that the GOP both at the national & state & even the local levels take Wayne's advice to get now into our urban areas & most importantly Stay There to Outreach & Educate & grow the party
Harriet Tubman was a Freedom Fighter helping to lead slaves to freedom out of slavery back in her day... One of the quotes that I do love which is attributed to her is "I freed a thousand slaves; I could have freed a thousand more if only they knew they were slaves" #NotAllChainsAreVisible is a hashtag which I have used in the past & will again in the future because just like Harriet's quote above, there is a problem of people being "Mentally Enslaved" so that they are basically "stuck" in their current position due to their mind set. This mental slavery can affect people of all colors & nationalities & political parties including both rich & poor in the grips of mental chains that place them in an invisible cage. Are you a Free Man or Slave?
Sonnie Johnson talks some actual history that we in the Black Community need to rethink...
This is an older video of hers & she's located in another state but as you watch... Look around you & see if what she is saying can be applied right here to Hartford.
All Politics are Local... who have we voted into office? Town Council, State Level & Federal are they "Working For US" which as elected officials they are Our Employees or just to line their own pockets with an Attitude that they are better than us?
Are we thriving or are we "Just Over Broke", are we Prospering or are we Pinching Pennies? Ask yourself WHY is that?
What conditions are our schools? Have our children been the priority or is our tax money being syphoned off into schemes & stadium pipedreams?
What is going on in our public schools? With all of the money which has been poured into one "experimental program" after another has the School to Prison Pipeline been shut down or is it still flowing strong?
You Have a Choice this November... the old Status Quo with more of the same results or a Fresh New Start with eyes that look from the perspective of what it is like to actually have to LIVE under these laws & increasing taxes...
Dr Alveda King talks about Common Core in this video She does not feel that this is a good educational option for our children, especially children of color who are already in disadvantaged urban schools Our children deserve Quality Education. Our parents deserve to have the option to send their children to Quality Schools rather than being forced to stay in the union corporations being run by the government. Our parents DESERVE to be able to CHOOSE the school their child attends. The tax payer money that is being shelled out should be going to the Quality Schools that parents want their children attending not only to the union corporations being run by the government. The Unions in the Government Schools care only about money instead of teaching our children the skills they need to learn to become productive self reliant individuals that can run businesses of their own creations.
