As the Black Press, along with thousands of media entities, journalists, publishers, podcasters, show hosts, commentators, bloggers, etc, across the country are encouraging their audiences to cease supporting companies that refuse to level the playing fields and spread economic independence and generational wealth opportunities equitably, the Black Press must be included in the equation and in every discussion.
We will explore this topic more in the future when I talk about the many ways you can support with more than your $$$.
It’s simple though, Black Media Companies are businesses also. When you’re looking at where to circulate your dollars, think of the Black Press, because believe me, we think about you all the time!
It has been 21 years since I last heard my father’s voice. Joseph Smith, born March 2, 1927, departed December 8, 2004, leaving a void that will remain until all is said and done for me. I still remember people out of love, or at a loss for words, would tell me that I will “get over it” or “this too shall pass” or he is in a “better place.” I refrained from responding with my real thoughts. Two decades later, I have to tell you I miss my Daddy so much. I wish every girl could experience that unconditional, protective love.
