Remember this Kenyan runner Abel Mutai who was just a few feet from the finish line, but became confused with the signage and stopped, thinking he had completed the race.

A Spanish runner, Ivan Fernandez, was right behind him and, realizing what was happening, started shouting at the Kenyan to continue running. Mutai didn't know Spanish and didn't understand. Realizing what was taking place, Fernandez pushed Mutai to victory.

A journalist asked Ivan, "Why did you do that?"

Ivan replied, "My dream is that someday we can have a kind of community life where we push and help each other to win."

The journalist insisted "But why did you let the Kenyan win?"

Ivan replied, "I didn't let him win, he was going to win. The race was his."

The journalist insisted, and again asked, "But you could have won!"

Ivan looked at him and replied, "But what would be the merit of my victory? What would be the honor in that medal? What would my Mother think of that?"

BLACK Herstory Month

As Black History Month comes to an end, we are grateful for the opportunity to have filmed Black HERstory Month at the
Chicago Cultural Center.

Mayor Brandon Johnson and his lovely wife, acknowledged the fabulous assortment of food provided by Loren Wilson of Soul Ingredient Catering, LLC and her outstanding team. The evening delight was filled with surprises like the Salmon with Cream Cheese Delights Finger Food, the Green Soulfood Martini with Chicken Lolipop/Chicken Parfait, and the complete table of HERstorical desserts. The most outstanding dish was the cookies that looked like stamps, celebrating the accomplishments of women! HERstory Rocks!

Had we not seen the movie “Hidden Figures” we would have never known women like this had made such valuable contributions. Actresses

Taraji P. Henson
Katherine Goble Johnson

Octavia Spencer
Dorothy Vaughan

Janelle Monáe
Mary Jackson

All played valuable roles in bringing HERstory to life!

Women’s stories have often been hidden for centuries, but finally coming to light. Like Mildred Blount, (Milliner to the stars) who provided hats to the stars in the film industry whose designs were taken and she was not given credit for her work.

Wait until you see this video! facebook.com/reel/724810618999221

Let us continue to celebrate the women in our lives, who made much of what we experience today, possible.

He spoke on the subject of FAITH, and left us with a nice quote saying, “If your faith goes untested, that faith can’t be trusted, because it wasn’t allowed to be proven!” POWERFUL Statement. The question remails, “Where is your faith”? I had faith that Terry would show up to encourage our youth, and he did! Praise God!

Special Thanks to Author Will Smith for being such an informative Guest on

Monday Morning Mindfulness!

Thanks to all our viewers/listeners who joined in to share as well!

Here are some resources from the show:

Elder Baba Kwame Sunhorse (The Wordsmith) warns us of the future with technology stating that

“AI .Artificial is slowly dissolving our humanity. As I think about it, it’s really true.

I see it every time I am around the unhoused community (formerly known as homeless) People walk by and don’t even look at them, let alone smile. People are usually afraid they will ask them for something. It’s not always the case. They just need human support. A smile. A handshake. A hug! Simple things that don’t cost you anything!

Don’t be fearful. Just trust your gut! I know, I digress. I do that sometimes.

He refers to “AI” as ACCESS INDIVIDUALS”

They have ACCESS to our needs and desires, and use it to encourage us to make a purchase of something. He even takes it a step further with the word technology!

Baba Kwame, the Wordsmith also says that the word TECHNOLOGY also represents

TAKING OUR KNOWLEDGE! Looks like we’re the “bots” now?

So wherever. you go, take this with you!

You are the keeper of the knowledge in your family, community or tribe.

Some things you just need to keep to yourself! My next book is one ot them.
