Black Fraternities and Sororities Step to Celebrate Their Culture

Stepping is a rhythmic performance art practiced by Black Greek-lettered fraternities and sororities across the nation. It combines intricate footwork, foot stomps, hand movements, vocals, and handclaps. Stepping is also an expression of unity.

Common Money Myths That Block Black People From Wealth

I have to start this one off carefully. This one is embedded in the psyche of the American way of life. I have even been guilty on some levels of perpetuating this myth in my life with varying results. I have come to realize that in the pursuit of real wealth, it can stunt your economic growth and keep you trapped financially. "Fake it Till You Make It." These six words can derail you from wealth and leave you fakin it forever. If you are pursuing an acting career and lack some credentials while on an audition, "fake it till you make it," may very well work in your favor. Putting yourself in positions where you have the skill but lack the experience, "fake it till you make it," can be your friend. When dealing with wealth and wealth building in particular, this philosophy becomes a myth, ...

Black Psychosis

Psychosis is a dirty word so I don't expect much appreciation for writing this. But we Blacks need to start owning our circumstances. Racism and discrimination persist but that isn't the point here. The Black community has cultivated a belief system and mental state that have become entrenched into our DNA. I call this the "Black Psychosis" and in contemporary America it is just as responsible for holding our people back as institutional racism. In its basic form, psychosis means a distorted view of reality, usually including false beliefs about what is actually taking place, which then impact how one goes about their daily life. Black psychosis is a form of group psychosis where deep seated emotions, distorted beliefs and behavioral characteristics may not be apparent in any one individu...

Afraid of the Dark – Working With Black Men in Corporate America

I've worked on-and-off in corporate America for 12 years as a consultant, independent contractor, and an employee. In that time, I've had the dubious distinction of being the only black man, and many times, the only black person, at the companies where I was employed. The thing about being the only black person in the office is that it comes with responsibility. Not job responsibility, because that's a given, but psychosocial responsibility. Many times, I, and other black men in similar situations, represent the lone intimate contact that our white colleagues will have with other black people, and black men in particular. The extent of these interactions will be largely determined by their comfort level and acceptance. While many (white people) find it shocking that a black man can stil...
