The Documentary

Links to Excellence - More Than a Speech

As commencement speeches have become a media event that many look forward to each year, the 2024 Clark Atlanta University Commencement Address, delivered by Dr. Daniel Black, is a phenomenal delivery, surpassing an address catered to students.  Its inspiring message is for anyone needing the encouragement to fulfill their dreams, seize their future and remember their inherent abilities to soar.

The Best Commencement

 

“The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.”

                                                                                             – Eleanor Roosevelt

The Transatlantic

 

Who would have imagined ancestors of such atrocities would bear descendants who’d enrich America ... names that would remain, after their demise.

MLK Day

 

Though we’re all created equal for some, it’s earned.  Glory is a cinematic movement, reminding us of the sacrifice.  

The Song

 

A humble upbringing informs humanity and the determination to survive.

The Other DEI

 

Diversity, Equity, and [Investment] are resourceful assets when implemented by companies and organizations under inclusive policies, based on qualifications regardless of racial identity or gender.

It is the DEI, presently at risk, as inclusion is an investment, allowing one entity a competitive advantage over another, as inclusiveness measured on qualifications translates into success.
