This looks brilliant and a great initiative. Something that could be shared and used in many environments. When working across HMP we come across a lot of young black fathers who have not had any attention to the basics of their needs and their roles as fathers from that position which is obviously different to those who are living freely. Many want to feel empowered and inspired to be the great fathers they want to be and need. However it’s great to explore the positives of black fatherhood outside the standard stereotype and also what the energ of father is that can show up through any man for another. Being in space and around other black fathers must feel very encouraging for them all. Fatherhood is one of the topics explored in He’s Vulnerable when… we shall be exploring again in pt 2

Business without ethics is simply greed.

Unlocking TV's Future: Gatsby's Game-Changer App Download The App: https://www.gatsby.tv/ Buy Courses at https://lnkd.in/ey6J_Eij Support Us On Patreon: https://lnkd.in/gciC927X Gatsby introduced his app Gatsby TV, which allows users to search for and recommend TV shows and movies to friends, bringing offline conversations online. The app currently has a few thousand users but Gatsby aims to grow it. Gatsby discussed struggles securing investment as a black founder, noting he has not met a single black investor. He is self-funded so far alongside his partner. Hearing wisdom helped him persevere despite obstacles. Gatsby advised having confidence like he did leaving a cushy job for his vision. Though success isn't guaranteed, with dedication and problem-solving skills, one can accomplish goals through perseverance. Gatsby aims to use the app to spur real-life conversations about entertainment, with meetups and giveaways. Users are encouraged to share culture by uploading content, building community through a shared passion. Gatsby's long-term goal is using the app's success to establish schools supporting black children from an early age, addressing a root cause of lack of black business leaders. Investing in youth will help communities thrive for generations. Both speakers stressed the importance of identifying and nurturing talent in children early. Differences should be seen as strengths, not limitations. With the right foundations and belief in their abilities, all children can achieve their potential. --- Send in a voice message: https://lnkd.in/emVqVy75

In June 2020, the the American Academy of Arts and Sciences’ Commission on the Practice of Democratic Citizenship published its landmark report,?Our Common Purpose: Reinventing American Democracy for the 21st?Century, with recommendations concerning many aspects of politics and civic life. The AAA&S has continued to develop and promote the strategies of that document. Some of this work has been conducted by a?Civic Culture Working Group, to which I belong. And yesterday, this Working Group released its report, entitled?Habits of Hearts and Mind: How to Fortify Civic Culture. The report defines “civic culture” as “the set of norms, values, narratives, habits, and rituals that shape how we live together and govern ourselves in our diverse democratic society.” “Culture” can be a vague term applied to elusive aspects of groups or organizations–or even a way of avoiding sharper analysis. What we cannot explain, sometimes we call “culture.” But I believe this report avoids that trap by offering vivid examples of organizations that enhance civic culture, thus communicating a relatively tangible sense of what the phrase means. For instance, Lincoln Center “held a group wedding for seven hundred couples with backgrounds and traditions as diverse as New York.” More than 100 “bikers with Black Bikers Vote joined When We All Vote for a motorcycle ride that stopped by drop boxes and polling places in Philadelphia. The community ride ended with a party featuring food, music, and entertainment to celebrate the West Philadelphia community voting together.” More here: https://lnkd.in/gkppnUtp
