Don't Allow Fear to Paralyze You

Chapman University released its 10th consecutive study on fear in America toward the end of October, and the findings this year point to heightened anxiety and worry within the country.

Reject Narcissism and Selfishness -- Embrace the Golden Rule

I recently read an informative article by NPR's Amy Held that provides advice for talking to children who may be stressed about the presidential election results. Held features an interview with a 37-year-old father who voted for President-elect Donald Trump, but his two older children, 11 and 13, had apprehensive feelings about Trump's victory....Read more

Divine Guidance Is Needed for Our Democracy

On the day after the presidential election, I saw several headlines proclaiming the result of former President Donald Trump's victory as a day of mourning, especially for Black Americans and Black women.

Will Artificial Intelligence Lead to Alternate Reality?

When Geoffrey Hinton, popularly known as the "Godfather of AI," won the Nobel Prize in Physics earlier this month, he accepted this premier award in his field with cautious hesitation and probably some regret.

Prioritizing What Matters and Avoiding the Grind

Oct. 10 was World Mental Health Day, and the official theme was: "It is time to Prioritize Mental Health in the Workplace." I'm sure this theme resonated with Gen Z and younger millennial workers, as mental health has been a priority for them in achieving a good work-life balance. Mental health has in many ways become Gen Z's signature concern...Read more

The Black Church and Gen Z

While perusing through updates on my LinkedIn page last week, I came across a post highlighting a thought-provoking feature from The New York Times' national correspondent Clyde McGrady, who covers the influence of race and identity in American culture. The title of McGrady's piece is "The Black Church Has a Gen-Z Issue: 'They Don't Come Into ...Read more

Remembering 'Good Times'' John Amos

Many African American members of my generation who grew up watching "Good Times" reacted to the delayed news of the recent passing of John Amos as we would of a close relative. "Good Times" was an iconic Norman Lear sitcom of the 1970s, and Amos portrayed the stern and battle-tested James Evans, a father who struggled to support his three ...Read more

The Homeless Crisis Needs to Be Addressed in the Upcoming Vice Presidential Debate

It appears that another debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump will likely not take place, but since the VP candidates - Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Ohio Sen. JD Vance -- are scheduled to face off on Oct. 1, how they present their platforms will definitely impact the November election. Most political ...Read more

What America Truly Represents

The fabricated claim that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, are eating pets and ducks is one of the most bizarre untruths of this election season.
