It’s Man POWER Monday! And…It’s BLACK HISTORY MONTH! I couldn’t imagine kicking off this month without featuring none other than the First African-American Resident Superior Court Judge in the State of North Carolina, The Honorable Cy A. Grant Sr. Cy A. Grant Sr. a.k.a. Judge Grant is my Man POWER Monday pick because he has “judicial” […]
Man POWER Monday is back!!! As part of my holiday adventures I had the opportunity to travel to Montgomery, Alabama with my nephew and daughter solely for the purpose of visiting The Legacy Museum: From Slavery to Mass Incarceration and The National Memorial for Peace and Justice. The Museum and Memorial came into existence thanks […]
It is “Man POWER Monday”!!! It seems like a few short years ago I was attending my nephew’s high school graduation. While my family and I were all so excited about this milestone, we were a little more excited about the post graduation celebration we had planned. After all, it was just a high school […]
It is “Man POWER Monday”!!! This week I am featuring none other than Trombone Shorty. Sadly I must admit that it took this trip to NOLA for me to learn about this musical genius. Sometimes I feel like I am living under a rock! 🙂 In case you don’t know, Trombone Shorty has “musical swag”. Born […]

It is “Man POWER Monday”!!! For those of you that know me, you know I hate reality tv! But, periodically, I reluctantly get sucked in for the sake of being “open-minded”. Boy am I happy that I got sucked into the reality series Southern Charm New Orleans. This is how I was introduced to artist and […]
It is “Man POWER Monday”!!! This week I am featuring none other than Trent Shelton. For a person that doesn’t watch football I sure seem to be coming across a lot of athletes that I believe exhibit Man Power 🙂. Anywhooo… Trent Shelton gets my vote this week because I totally dig his “inspirational swag”. I came […]
It is “Man POWER Monday”!!! This week I am featuring none other than Bakari Sellers. I am so digging his “intellectual swag” right now. A native of South Carolina, Bakari Sellers was born on September 18, 1984. After earning his undergraduate degree from Morehouse College, Sellers went on to earn his Juris Doctorate degree from […]
It is “Man POWER Monday”!!! This week I am featuring none other than Colin Kaepernick. He became a household name when, as an NFL quarterback, he began kneeling during the national anthem as a form of protest against the social injustices taking place in minority communities. His ability to stand up for what he believed […]
